Mathematical Oncology

From the editor
I am especially eager to write to you this week with the miriad of new updates in mathematical oncology. First, some colleagues are planning the advent of a new Society of Math Biology (SMB) subgroup. If you would like to be involved (must be a current SMB member), sign up at mathematical-oncology.org/smb-mathonco.
With so many of us modeling the evolution and ecology of cancer, I've included a recent review titled after the famous phrase "nothing makes sense in cancer, except..." The review was timed well, with the subsequent release of preprints on the evolution of resistance, tumor ecosystem, and fitness landscapes.
Enjoy,
-Jeffrey West

#MathOnco Books
The Emperor of All Maladies:
A Biography of Cancer
Siddhartha Mukherjee: In this substantially longer volume, written as a biography of the disease, Mukherjee details an extensive and well-researched background to the history of cancer research. Poignant and easy to read, you won't want to put this one down.
