Men who have completed prostate cancer treatment often find themselves facing new        challenges and setbacks that do not necessarily recede along with the cancer. Many        books endeavor to explain the different types of prostate cancer treatments, but        most conclude once a treatment choice has been made, offering readers little in the        way of guidance through the challenges of the post-treatment period.After Prostate        Cancer: A What-Comes-Next Guide to a Safe and Informed Recovery picks up where those        books leave off. Dr. Arnold Melman, Chair of the Department of Urology at the Albert        Einstein College of Medicine, offers a thorough description of what the prostate        cancer recovery process is like and what readers can do to move themselves through        recovery to the best possible health and long-term prognosis. Giving detailed        explanations of what to expect and why based on diagnosis, treatment methodology,        and other variables that make each man's post-treatment experience different, Dr.          Melman offers strategies for mindfully and healthfully approaching post therapy        issues, including confronting PSA measurement, erectile dysfunction, urinary        incontinence and psychological issues that are a common result of living through        prostate cancer and treatment. Sharing the experiences of other prostate cancer        patients in addition to accessible explanations of the available medical literature,        Dr. Melman helps readers and their partners to get the best information, make the        most informed decisions, feel comfortable with those decisions, and work through        issues as they arise. Treatment is only the beginning of getting back to a healthy        life after a diagnosis. After Prostate Cancer offers the best information to help        readers with everything that comes next."e;After Prostate Cancer offers readers order        who are often faced with chaos. Melman and Newnham have written an informative guide        for the recovering prostate cancer patient."e;--Mani Menon, M.D., The Raj and Padma        Vattikuti Distinguished Chair and Director, Vattikuti Urology Institute, Henry Ford        Health System"e;Now the hundreds of men who have benefitted directly from Dr. Arnold        Melman's compassionate care for prostate cancer will swell into the thousands as the        readers of this book take home his wisdom and sound advice. The information he        provides is straightforward and practical, including both medical and emotional        sides of the experience. This book is a welcome addition to the self-help library        for prostate cancer survivors."e;--Leslie R. Schover, Ph.D., Professor of Behavioral        Science, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center"e;This book summarizes the        field of recovery after prostate cancer perfectly for the patient and his family.          The authors cover all the topics that patients who have undergone treatment want to        know about, including how to manage side effects. The text is readable and the        information is imparted in an easy-to-understand style. I recommend this book to        patients, their loved ones, and anyone else who has been affected by a prostate        cancer diagnosis."e;--Ashutosh K. Tewari, M.D., M.Ch., Director, Prostate Cancer        Institute and the LeFrak Robotic Surgery Center, Weill Cornell Medical        College
