It is caused by malignant transformations that occur in hematopoietic stem cells, making them undifferentiated cells with increased longevity. In ALL, those cells are called lymphoid cells, and their rate of proliferation causes fast growth and destruction of healthy bone marrow.

Because normal cells lack survival techniques, it leads to anoikis. The tumor development process strives when malignant cells escape from the local issues and resist anoikis.

In philosophy, the absurd describes the inability to find a meaning in life, and all people who try to find purpose in their lives will eventually fail. Life itself is not absurd, but when people are faced with existential questions, they inevitably face absurdity. In response, they can commit suicide, turn to religion for answers, or accept life and its absurdity as it is. Albert Camus claims suicide and recovery are the methods of dealing with the absurd once existential questions cause people to encounter it (“The myth of Sisyphus and other essays” 12). Other philosophers also agree with ...

Meursault is the main character of the novel “The Stranger,” in which Camus wanted to emphasize the problem of belief in contemporary society. According to Camus, the most serious issue is the inability to believe in reality, observe what happens in the moment, and the inability to live life as it is rather than being concerned with nihilism and contemplating the absurd (Francev, 2010). The novel shows three stages of development, through which Meursault eventually learns to deal with the lack of meaning in life. In the first part of the book, Meursault is an isolated being who ...

Book Review: Catch-22

This book, written by Joseph Heller and published in 1961, is perhaps best known for its title alone, which has become a familiar expression in the English language, meaning any “no-win” situation, originally derived from a specific set of circumstances occurring in the novel.
