Review

'This book really covers all aspects of BPH that a primary care physician would need to know. The pathophysiology, evaluation, and methods of medical, surgical, and minimally invasive treatment are all covered in appropriate detail. The information is up-to-date and all currently used medications and surgical treatment options are nicely reviewed.' --Doody's Review, about 5th edn
