A book I would not ordinarily have chosen to read except that I was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. My physician, an excellent patient responsive doctor, pulled the book off his book shelf and told me that he read it early in his career and still remembers passages as he performs prostate cancer biopsies & surgeries. He loaned it to me to read prior to our next meeting where we will discuss options for my treatment. A 600 page book written by a foremost expert physician specializing in prostate cancer, with a foreword from the head of the Duke University Medical Center Prostate Center --not the usual read for me, but in retrospect, perhaps one of the more important things I've read in a while. In a patient centered style it covers nearly every topic in a clear, explanatory style and does not leave out uncomfortable topics (e.g. there is a section describing how a person with untreatable prostate cancer typically dies). Having a good understanding of science & medicine, I found this book raised several important questions I can now feel comfortable asking my physician--something he told me he hoped would happen when i read it.

This is one of those books that I wish I never had cause to read. But life had other plans. That being the case I am glad to have found this book thanks to the folks on cancerforums.net. The book is very informative and a must read for the newly diagnosed and those that love us.
