First sentence: The first edition of this book was published in 1999 when the idea of men's health as a separate entity was still in its infancy.
Description: Completely revised and updated, the second edition of this book covers disease management, maintenance, and prevention in the care of the male patient. Taking a comprehensive approach, the text fills a gap in available literature on specifically male health problems. The editors address a full range of men's healthcare problems, ranging from sexual issues to surgical, medical, and psychiatric issues, to illness prevention and health maintenance. The textbook is a well-illustrated and edited clinical reference guide for family practitioners and primary healthcare teams, and provides an exhaustive reference on men's health from childhood to old age.
