Cancer Research was the Official Organ of the American Association for Cancer Research, Inc. Arthur Canfield Upton (February 27, 1923 â" February 14, 2015) was an American pathologist and radiation biologist. He was former director of the National Cancer Institute and known for his research in radiation biology of cancer. From 1951 to 1954, Upton worked as a pathologist at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). He was the Chief of the Pathology-Physiology Section of the Biology Division of the ORNL from 1954 to 1969. Afterwards, Upton was professor of pathology at Stony Brook University from 1969 to 1977. He was the dean of the School of Basic Health Sciences at Stony Brook University from 1970 to 1975. Between 1965 and 1966, he was the president of the Radiation Research Society. In 1977, President Carter appointed Upton as the director of the National Cancer Institute, who stayed until 1980. He moved to New York University School of Medicine in 1980 and became the Director of the Institute of Environmental Medicine from 1980 to 1992. He moved to University of New Mexico and became a clinical professor of pathology and radiology from 1992 to 1995. A leader who helped to transform cancer research to a true scientific endeavor was Jacob Furth. In a career of fifty-seven years he contributed to diverse fields of cancer biology and experimental pathology. He was responsible for advances in immunology, leukemia and radiation, and viral carcinogenesis. The relative biological effectiveness of atomic-bomb radiations was compared with that of the same dose of neutrons and gamma rays absorbed at conventional dose rates. Approximately 5000 mice were exposed to graded amounts of atomic-bomb radiation following placement at various distances from the hypocenter of an atomic explosion. The mice were observed throughout their lives for delayed somatic effects such as changes in vigor, longevity, and cause of death. Results are tabulated and illustrated with 91 photographs. The effects observed in this study did not differ from those observed following exposure to radiations delivered at a high intensity from conventional laboratory sources. The results of this experiment demonstrate that instaneous exposure to penetrating radiations sets in motion a complex series of changes culminating in premature onset of diseases of natural senescence and life shortening. 180 references. Before this experiments,information about the biological effects of atomic bomb radiation was fragmentary, obtained from earlier nuclear tests and from records of Japanese bomb victims. This experiment was part of a large-scale program designed to extend information about the effects of atomic bomb radiation on a variety of mammals and other living organisms. Foremost were two questions: would atomic bomb radiations cause injuries qualitatively different from those of conventional radiations, and would they differ from conventional radiations in relative biological effectiveness? This experiment was part of Operations Greenhouse. Reprinted for private circulation from Cancer Research, Vol. 20, No. 8 (Part 2), pp. 1-62, September 1960.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Second Edition, Stated. xii, 430, [6] pages. Illustrations. References. Some scuffing on the rear board. Topics covered include Basic Radiation Physics, Chemistry, and Biology; Sources of Radiation Exposure; Effects on Genetic Material; Cancer Induction and Dose-Response Models; Carcinogenesis of Specific Organ Sites; Direct Effects of Radiation; Effects of Radiation in Combination with Other Agents; Radiation Exposure in Utero; Uranium and Plutonium; Probability of Causation in an Individual; Perception and Acceptance of Risk; and Hormesis. Also includes a glossary, radiation source term tables, conversion tables, and an index. This second edition follows the first edition by nine years. In the interim, there have been a number of important developments in the understanding of the medical effects of ionizing radiation. These developments include new concepts in radiation protection, better understanding of the molecular and genetic basis of radiation carcinogenesis, publication of a large body of observations concerning late effects of radiotherapy, a greater understanding of direct effects on humans as a result of the Chernobyl accident, and an embryologic basis for in utero effects of ionizing radiation on the brain. It provides information on risk estimates, exposure, dosage, genetics, and carcinogenesis, this text serves as a source of knowledge for the medical effects of radiation on humans. It includes material on radon, radiation exposure in utero, cancer initiation, promotion, progression, and more.
