Prostate

Dr. Yosh Taguchi (Private Parts: An Owner's Guide to the Male Anatomy), a leading urologist, has written a book for men newly diagnosed with prostate disease (enlargement, inflammation or cancer) who are seeking the best treatment (medication, surgery) and recuperative options (when Viagra fails to help, etc.), as well as for their concerned partners. This book is forthright, positive and, thus, aptly named The Prostate: Everything You Need to Know. Although doctors today do know a lot about this enigmatic gland, Taguchi does not hesitate to explain when the territory remains unclear. Readers will appreciate his frankness as much as his warmth.
