Cancer is the focus of intense clinical and scientific interest. This research increasingly leverages our understanding of molecular biology for the development of targeted therapeutics. Well-selected case studies provide an opportunity to explain specific examples of cancers and their management in the context of engaging, patient-centered cases. This text is a clinical companion for Weinberg’s The Biology of Cancer. However, it includes sufficient background and explanatory detail to be used on its own.

Thinking Race clarifies the relationship between biology and race, showing how racism can result from a misguided blending of biology with social construction. Using arresting examples, Richard Goldsby and Mary Catherine Bateson aim to help readers accept the reality of human difference while understanding human unity. Controversial issues of race and IQ, race and athletic ability, and perceptions of race and beauty are examined, as are those of affirmative action and reparations for slavery. The authors also explore how income inequality, healthcare disparities, unequal access to education, an unfair justice system, and mass incarceration all call for constructive social policies that remodel American society in ways that will build a better, more resilient, and happier society. The goal is a society in which equal civil rights are clearly derived from the recognition of equal human rights, and equal opportunity provides the pathway to equitable results.
