With today's intense economic competiton, limited environmental resources and conflicting advice to the public on personal dangers, cancer policy needs to be based on the best available information. The association of chemically induced cell proliferation with carcinogenic activity is so prevalent that it must be considered in evaluating the carcinogenic danger of chemicals to which people may be exposed.
