Every 15 minutes, a man dies from it." Thus, the message of this book that "most prostate trouble can be prevented?and, if caught early enough, all prostate problems can be cured, even cancer"?is good news indeed.

The authors acknowledge that "medical care in this country is uneven," so their goal is "for you to come away from this book informed, prepared and able to discuss your situation intelligently with your doctor."

Nash's recent case study approach in Prostate Cancer: Making Survival Decisions , James Swanton, Albert Einstein Coll. of Medicine,
