Dr. Walsh's experience (he is the leader in the field) makes him the foremost authority on the prostate, the kinds of surgery available to extend one's life - and to retain sexual function (when that is possible). His advice saved my life six years ago. I wouldn't part with my book, and this one was purchased for another male in my family.

This book covers what the prostate is and what it does as well as all aspects of prostate cancer, from causes, detection, classification, and all treatment forms. It goes into diet, exercise, and is very comprehensive. It will tell you all the types of treatment and the effects, as well as what to do about recurrences. It repeats itself a couple of times in places, but it is a fantastic book. Every man should read this book. I thought so much of it that I bought a copy for my son, son-in-law, and my dearest friend as gifts. Harry
I have read 9 articles on prostate cancer and 2 other books. This has more information that I thought was possible. It covers so many aspects of prostate cancer but I never knew existed and I'm sure my doctor will not want to have to answer my questions. I do not enjoy reading but when I started this afternoon I could not stop till I finished over half of the book. I don't know how I I don't know how I could encourage you anymore to read this book.

This book is the holy grail on the male prostate, written by Dr Patrick Walsh, the father of modern urology. The Walsh book is written in easy to understand language. This Johns Hopkins urologist was the first to accomplish the nerve sparing prostatectomy, this procedure is now called the walsh method. This book is a must read for men and the spouses. I recommend the second edition. Whatever procedure you decide on, it is all explaned in this book.
This book was recommended by a urologist. It is up to date (last publication 2007) and very informative. It is written so a person with little knowledge of the subject can easily understand the material. It is a must have for any man, young or old who is concerned about prostate cancer. It covers the funcion of the prosate, possible causes of the disease, treatment options, diet, and last but not least, prevention!
