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

Book cover
Product Description: Radical prostatectomy is still the most widely recommended treatment for prostate cancer. Yet, according to a recent study, only one out of every forty-eight men who undergo this debilitating procedure survives longer than those who forgo surgery. Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers reports the latest thinking on prostate cancer management in clear, easy-to-understand prose. In a unique collaboration, a patient and his doctor provide a new perspective on living with this disease. Ralph Blum’s surprisingly entertaining twenty-year journey and eventual decision to treat his cancer as a “chronic condition,” together with Dr. Mark Scholz’s presentation of the newest scientific evidence, will liberate thousands of newly diagnosed men to pursue a noninvasive approach and thereby preserve normal sexual and urinary function.
HorizonsUnlimited reviews:

Susan says: The author has a low-risk cancer and has treated it for 20 years without surgery or radiation. Entertaining, and makes the case for avoiding radical intervention IF your cancer is low-risk. Don't let it be the only book you read, though!
