\text { We tend to think of cancer as a 'modern' illness because its metaphors are } \\
\text { so modern. It is a disease of overproduction, of sudden growth, a growth } \\
\text { that is unstoppable, tipped into the abyss of no control. Modern cell biology } \\
\text { encourages us to imagine the cell as a molecular machine. Cancer is that } \\
\text { machine unable to quench its intial command (to grow) and thus transform } \\
\text { into an indestructible, self-propelled automaton. }\end{array}$ \\
