Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers: An Essential Guide to Managing Prostate Cancer for Patients and Their Families

Don't let the title bother you. This book is a great introductory summary to approaching prostate cancer. I'm asking my wife to read it to help me develop a treatment strategy. It is well written, with chapters that alternate between patient and doctor.

A no-nonsense factual analysis regarding diagnosis and treatment methods. A must read for anyone suspecting they may have prostrate problems. This book is especially important in that it covers the procedures you may be offered that should be avoided, given that some diagnostic procedures and treatments carry very high risks and are virtually useless to boot.

Invaluable, a God-send, much appreciated … I don’t know what else to say(!). Keep revising the book and keep up the good work.

I think this would be a great book for any man who is dealing with prostate issues, and in particular with the prospect or recent diagnosis of prostate cancer. Read this before you make any decisions about further treatment… It covers all the options and is super helpful, Written from the perspective of both a physician and a patient, giving you all angles that you may not get just from your doctor’s approach. Not to slight your doctor or your team, but often they have a biased approach according to which kind of direction they prefer to go, and are most adept in. Be your own best advocate, and then make your decisions!

It is so refreshing to find a publication by an expert that outlines options and then relies on the patient to select the option that best suites their lifestyle and goals. Rather than treat people like sheep, this author(s) treats you as someone who, with full information on a subject, can make a decision based on what is best for the individual patient. Thanks you for the information.
