Riassunto

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men, affecting one in ten men in the Western world. In Australia a man dies of cancer every three hours; in the UK it's at least one every hour. Yet only ten per cent of men in the UK know where the prostate gland is and research into the illness has in the past been so underfunded that it is ten years behind research into other cancers.
Now Professor Jane Plant, internationally bestselling author of the ground-breaking book Your Life In Your Hands, brings her knowledge to bear on prostate cancer, advocating the non-dairy diet and way of life that she adopted throughout her personal struggle with breast cancer.
