You must be Kidding Dr. Supratic Gupta! Want to change the world? Want to make people think sincerely? Why not? We all want a better world for our children, In pursuit of Happiness and Success. The lopsided and inequitable development of Indian society has prodded an IIT faculty to initiate a journey of explorations and observations, through the maze of complex socio-cultural and systemic issues. It led to some new innovative concepts, touching the roots of complex human problems. The new approach was based upon his life experiences, including 12 years exposure to far eastern society. The problem lies in the rigid and outdated structures, systems, attitudes, research and educational systems. The suffering of children pursuing sports, music and dance in formal education system, and their post retirement life, led to the realization that children choosing sports, music and dance should have a complete separate curriculum of communication, science and mathematics, which will make a person complete entertainer and balanced personality. The authors have proposed to give more importance to flexibility exercise in childhood, counselling of adolescent and youth, a holistic child care system, and more scientific way of thinking. A series of portals controlled by public participation and involvement to assist the sports and research in India is also proposed.

This volume is arecord of the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study institute on "Biochemical and Bio logical Markers of Neoplastic Transformation" held September 28 - October 8, 1981, at Corfu, Greece. As early as 1860, Rudolf Virchow provided the first genetic concept of cancer by postulating "Omnia ceZZuZa e ceZZuZa ejusdem generis", a modification of the then exisiting cell theory "Omnis ceZZuZa e ceZZuZa". Thus, the idea that all cells originate from the parent cell was extended to the idea that all cancer cells come from the "paren t" cancer cello But how the first cancer cell arose, or in other words, how anormal cell changed to a cancer cell, is, even after 120 years, a mystery. Experimental studies of the past have convinced us that a number of factors contribute to the neoplastic transformation of anormal cell, but our knowledge on the mechanisms involved in this process is still in an embryonic state. In the last few years, however, this field has witnessed a most remarkable advancement cata lyzed by the development of modern technology in the al lied fields of immunology, the production of mono clonal antibodies, molecular biology, and sequencing v PREFACE and cloning of ONC genes. Presently, it is becoming more and more evident to the wishful mind of those engaged in this research that we are approaching a turning point. Thus, an assessment of the present situa tion will be most desirable at this time

Acquisition of new knowledge about the biological and bio chemical nature of neoplastic cells has led to the design and development of several experimental approaches in the tre&tment of cancer. These approaches emerge from the recent work in tu mor virology, e. g. the control of vital cellular genes by viral regulatory signals; the implication of monoclonal antibodies as a vehicle for the targeted drug delivery and selective de struction of tumor cells; immunologic advances in the recog nition of some specific events during metastatic growth; the role of biological response modifiers in modifying or rever sing malignant growth; and biochemical advances, such as the role of gene amplification in drug resistance and the app roaches to the reversal of resistance in drug refractory cancer, the role of membranes in designing useful strategies, the identification of new enzymic targets in some types of cancer cells, and the characterization of metabolically active forms of cytostatic compounds. These are the important issues which were addressed in an international NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) attended by scientists from allover the world representing a wide spectrum of scientific disciplines. Although the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is not a malignant disease, but the etiological involvement of a retrovirus belonging to the family of human T-cell lympho tropic viruses which cause leukemia and lymphomas in man, justifies its inclusion in the agenda of this Study Institute.
