James DeGregori proposes a way of thinking about cancer as a disease of evolution--one in which mutated cells outcompete healthy cells in the ecosystem of the body's tissues. By tying cancer's progression to natural selection and evolved strategies for reproductive success, his theory goes far in explaining who gets cancer, when it appears, and why.
