"Cancer: Its Cause and Treatment, Volume 1" by Lucius Duncan Bulkley is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book addresses the medical understanding of cancer, challenging the predominant focus on histological and surgical approaches. Instead, Bulkley advocates for exploring cancer through a broader perspective, emphasizing the role of diet, lifestyle, and underlying physiological disturbances in its causation and treatment. The opening of the text presents the author's view on the inadequacies of traditional cancer research, which often neglects the medical management of the disease prior to surgical intervention. Bulkley shares his motivations for writing, detailing how he wishes to contribute to the understanding of cancer's nature and etiology through synthesized observations drawn from clinical practices. He discusses the complexity of cancer as a condition that has baffled numerous researchers and stresses the need for a holistic approach to treatment, encompassing dietary considerations and lifestyle adjustments in conjunction with medical care. The goal of the initial lectures is to provoke further investigation into the medical aspects of cancer, aiming to enhance both prevention and treatment strategies.
