Is there an epidemic of cancer?

D Coggon1, H Inskip.   

Abstract

Trends in cancer mortality in England and Wales are dominated by a slowly evolving epidemic of lung cancer attributable to smoking. When the substantial effects of tobacco are discounted there is no evidence that the overall incidence of cancer is rising, but striking trends are apparent for several specific tumours. These may offer important clues to aetiology.
