The Equations of Life explores why stable systems sometimes fail without warning and what this reveals about health, ageing, cancer and the nature of complex systems. Drawing on neuroscience, cancer biology, mathematics and lived clinical experience, it offers a new perspective on how living systems preserve stability, adapt to change and eventually lose control.
Cancer Is Not Just Bad Luck
Millions of lives are lost to cancer every year, and a diagnosis can dramatically impact quality of life. This book explores evidence-based strategies for cancer prevention through research, precision medicine, and informed lifestyle choices. It highlights how prevention, early detection, and awareness can help reduce cancer risk and save lives. Available on Amazon
Why We Fall Apart asks one of medicine's most enduring questions: why do our bodies inevitably decline, and why does cancer emerge so reliably from the ageing process? Drawing on evolutionary biology, cancer research and systems thinking, Dr Sasi Shanmugam Senga argues that ageing and cancer arise from the same fundamental compromise that makes complex multicellular life possible. Rather than offering longevity myths or miracle cures, the book presents a new framework for understanding why biological decline follows predictable patterns, why every intervention involves trade-offs, and why cancer represents the return of cellular competition within ageing tissues.
The COVID-19 pandemic affected millions of lives across the globe, raising important questions about its impact on cancer patients and future cancer incidence rates. This book explores the potential consequences of the pandemic on cancer care, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes, providing insights into its long-term implications for cancer prevention and management.
Cancer cells are remarkable survivors, capable of hijacking the body's natural mechanisms to support their growth and survival. This book explores how cancer cells communicate with their microenvironment and examines four emerging hallmarks of cancer- dedifferentiation, epigenetics, the microbiome, and nerves. Combining a brief history of cancer with insights from the latest research, the book presents these complex concepts through clear explanations and artistic representations.
