The unity of the organism—an assembly of organs, tissues, cells, and genes working toward a common goal—has long been taken for granted. The essays in this collection pierce the organismal veil to consider how an organism persists, even as internal conflict, from cancer cells to selfish genes, threatens its integrity and survival.
