A high percentage of those will relapse. But the good news is that more men are being cured of this disease than ever before.In a new and completely revised 5th edition, this lifesaving guide offers a message of hope to every man facing this illness, and the people who love them.

Public awareness for this disease has transformed treatment and opened up new avenues of research; rapid advances in knowledge are being translated in new recommendations for management.
