The occurrence of tumours is a complex biological phenomenon, which involves multiple factors, multiple bases, multiple procedures and multiple stages. This book systematically elaborates the seven stochastic events of cancer, and the close relation between inflammation and cancer.

Though the relation between inflammation and cancer is clear according to current research, the potential mechanism of inflammation’s role in cancer is still unclear, and there are still many questions left unanswered. This book explores the role of inflammation in the occurrence and development of cancers, as well as its relationship to stress, angiogenesis, cell-to-cell communication and metastasis. Especially, this book introduces the applications of Chinese herbal medicine and their compounds to cancer and inflammation, and the mechanisms, which contribute to the integration of traditional Chinese medicine and modern oncology medicine.
