When a friend advised me that he had been diagnosed with prostate trouble, I rushed right out and accidentally stumbled across a used copy of this book while I was looking for something else. Seeing the title, however, I grabbed it and promptly read it it was a quick understandable read at 140 pages, including a few diagrams.

I found the book to be quite informative, and provided a lot of hope for men who might be concerned after getting a diagnosis of an enlarged prostate, or even prostate cancer. Still, the book is copyrighted 1994, some 20 years ago. While the information is presented quite clearly and provides a lot of hope realistic hope to sufferers, it should at best be a starting point to research more current material. (Even if nothing HAS changed, it would be nice to be able to verify that with something published more recently.)

RATING: 5 stars (cannot penalize it for its age).
