Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the pathology of the prostate, focusing on its causes and prevention. The author argues that the prostate gland is primarily a muscular apparatus responsible for retaining urine, rather than a gland solely related to reproduction. Through observations of surgical procedures and comparative anatomy, the author presents evidence supporting the notion that the prostate's development is influenced by the unique demands of urine retention in humans, particularly due to the upright posture. The book explores the complexities of prostatic hypertrophy, linking it to muscular compensation and the aging process. Ultimately, the author's insights contribute to a better understanding of the prostate's role in maintaining urinary function and provide valuable perspectives on preventing and managing prostatic enlargement.
