      abstract = {This book aims to present current state of understanding  of the role of metals in human health and disease. As it  will be difficult to cover all of the metals, about two  scores of them, the authors will instead provide a detailed  analysis of a select set of essential (Calcium, Magnesium,  Selenium, Iron, copper and Zinc) and non-essential metals  (Nickel, Chromium, Cadmium and Arsenic, Tungsten and  Asbestos). Each chapter will have a dedicated section  focusing on the binary role that some of these metals play,  their carcinogenic and cancer therapeutics, by integrating  epidemiological, experimental evidence with special  emphasis and focus on molecular mechanisms involved in  these processes. The biological analysis will also include  emerging lines of evidence such as micro RNAS, kinase  families, receptors, endoplasmic, mitochondrial players and  epigenetics. As part of integrating the human, experimental  and mechanistic data, as well as a detailed analysis into  the modes of action for different cancer outcomes will be  discussed in each chapter wherever deemed feasible. These  approaches are ones in which no other book in this area has  attempted to do.},
