The Sentient Cell

The Sentient Cell presents the controversial thesis that cells are not merely biochemical machines but possess forms of sentience, agency, and decision-making capacities.

Drawing on clinical observations, microbiology, and theoretical arguments, the authors propose that cellular cognition underlies development, immune responses, and disease processes.

The book challenges mainstream molecular and evolutionary biology, suggesting genes act as tools rather than masters and that information flows multidirectionally in living systems.

It explores implications for medicine, particularly in understanding and treating cancer and regenerative processes, and calls for new experiments and frameworks that treat cells as intelligent agents.

The work aims to stimulate debate and research into cognition-based biology.
