The Prostate Cancer Owner's Manual
註釋The Prostate Cancer Owner's Manual was written to help the 3.1 million American men who have prostate cancer and the 191,000 more who will develop it this year. It is not a medical textbook, but a practical user's guide. Since the two authors - one a medical doctor -- have "been there, done that" they are more than qualified to provide readers with real-world insights.The "Owner's Manual" provides? ?Abundant facts and explanations about the disease, ?Collects and presents data about the on-going test-or-don't-test debate, ?Information about treatments and multiple possible physical reactions,?Details on the physiological impact of prostate cancer and its treatment, and?Data on who gets PCa, what diets are good, and whether you can avoid it.For these reasons, and many more, the "Owner's Manual" is very much a book written for patients and those close to them. The authors -- as well as expert prostate cancer doctors -- firmly believe "that men and those close to them must be prepared for what they may confront -- and not be surprised by changes in their bodies and minds." As the cliché goes, "forewarned is forearmed."
