According to the most recent issue (2010) of the Cancer Statistic Report published in American Cancer Society's bimonthly publication CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, cancer is a leading cause of death among the US population, second only to heart disease (which I am currently reading about and hope to write about soon.) The 2008 issue of this annual report informs us, that in 2005 alone, the total number of deaths in the U.S. due to cancer was upwards of 559,000 people.
