Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina

This new book entitled Prostate Cancer has been subtitled A Multidisciplinary Guide to fully explain the goals the authors had in mind when writing this book. Edited by three outstanding urologists from three of the Harvard hospitals, Prostate Cancer: A Multidisciplinary Guide has been carefully designed for use by physicians who do not routinely care for prostate cancer on a daily basis. The book provides a balanced yet focused view of topics including screening, staging, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and alternative treatments. Chapters have been written by a "team" of co-authors representing different specialties with somewhat different perspectives. To give the reader a critique of the areas of controversy and disagreement, crucial issues are discussed in editorial comments at the end of each chapter. The end result is a book that will be useful to anyone interested in the challenge of treating prostate cancer.
