A brief review of the history of human leukemia, first identified as a new disease in 1845, is given as a personal perspective related to the re-examination of dogmas surrounding the disease. The paper addresses the question of what kind of disease leukemia is, and how far the adherence to dogma has shaped the firm belief that leukemia is a malignancy.
本文从个人角度回顾了人类白血病的历史（白血病于1845年首次被确认为一种新疾病），与对围绕该疾病的教条的重新审视相关。本文探讨了白血病是何种疾病的问题，以及对教条的坚持在多大程度上形成了白血病是一种恶性肿瘤的坚定信念。
