COMMENTS

Thanks for providing me the opportunity to benefit from Dr. Polansky's excellent research, articulated brilliantly in his book, Microcompetition with Foreign DNA and the Origin of Chronic Disease. Permit me to describe the book as the pool of philosophically and mathematically credible theories of the origin of chronic diseases and cancer. It has provided the research community with many things to ponder, validate and implement in the future. As a young investigator, I found these theories stimulating and inspiring. Previous observation with people living with HIV treated and untreated with AZT and 3TC is consistent with the findings in this book. The aspect of GABP virus is very impressive and consistent with my understanding of chronic diseases. I have also found this book useful in my current effort to provide efficient platforms for delivery of therapeutic genes to target organs. Dr. Polansky's book is an excellent companion for all clinical investigators as well as students of Physiology, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, Pathology and Alternative (Natural) Medicine. Please extend my congratulations to Dr. Polansky.
