Abstract
The severest plagues of mankind today, from myocardial infarction to cancer, are rising exponentially the world over. For the mechanistic medical science they are mostly ‘mystery diseases’, as well as a mystery is their uncontrolled exponential trend. Statistics reveal that they rise higher, the more a community is developed. But why? The too easy excuse of a higher ‘concrete’ pollution seems unreliable, where significant difference rates are recorded by different human groups in the same environment, but exposed to different values of ‘psychosomatic involvement’, or ΔΨ. The latter symbol, meaning ‘the variation of Ψ tone induced by a stimulus-event’, belongs to a highly predictive system of quantitative psychosomatics, which enables – through a logico-mathematical tool – the ascertaining of personal levels of ΔΨ. Since a chronic exceeding of its tolerance threshold seems to give rise to the whole set of psychosomatic diseases, cancer perhaps included, it is suggested that the said system may help in diagnostically clearing the matter, perhaps also in controlling it.
