Recensione

"State-of-the-art medical knowledge is provided by Johns Hopkins Urologist-in-Chief Walsh, clearly written by science writer Worthington, and informatively illustrated by Leon Schlossberg... [A] comprehensive reference on the prostate and its disorders." -- Library Journal



"This book is substantive. You can look up any subject and really learn a lot." -- Dr. Tim Johnson, "Good Morning America"



"Men -- and the women who care about them -- will find no better guide than Dr. Patrick Walsh." -- John A. Meyers, Chairman Emeritus, Time, Inc.



"The treatment of prostate disease is a topic surrounded by controversy, confusion, and misinformation. Men wondering where to turn for treatment would do well to start their search by reading this important book, which is not only comprehensive and authoritative but a model of clarity." -- William Whitworth, Editor, Atlantic Monthly



"Before Dr. Walsh, I wasn't even aware that I had a prostate. Now that I have read his book I know all about it, and he and Janet Worthington made it so easy for me to understand. This is a book that the prostate did not want the public to see." -- Art Buchwald



"Explains the latest procedures and their side effects." -- U.S. News and World Report
