Although prostate cancer is a disease that strikes nearly 200,000 men every year, it is a disease that has been shrouded in silence, in part because it strikes at the very core of masculine identity. But in Man to Man, bestselling author Michael Korda breaks that silence, turning the story of his illness and recovery into a candid and instructive book that speaks not only to every man and woman whose life has been touched by prostate cancer but to everyone who lives in fear of it.
With unsparing frankness, Korda describes how he survived the ordeal of prostate surgery and its painful and humiliating aftereffects. He tells us how tumors are graded, evaluates different treatments, and makes sense of prostate cancer's mystifying "numbers." Practical, immensely readable, filled with information, and, above all, hopeful, Man to Man is literally a life-saver.
Michael Korda is the editor-in-chief of Simon & Schuster, as well as the author of an acclaimed book about his family, Charmed Lives, several successful novels, and the number-one bestseller Power. He lives with his wife, Margaret, in Dutchess County, New York.

Cloth. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. 1st Little Brown Edition. Hardback. Man to Man. Surviving Prostate Cancer. Browning to edges of pages. Slight shelf wear to edges of D/J. In the autumn of 1994 the author was diagnosed as having prostate cancer. For several years he had been examined, tested and given medication, always with the arrusance that everything was all right - until it wasn't. But the discover of the actual cancer was only the beginning of his ordeal. This book relates not only what he and his wife Margaret went through, but, more importantly, what they learned in the process. With uncommon frankness Korda writes of overcoming incontinence and impotence, the truth about the various treatments, how tumours are graded and the reality of the 'numbers'. Switching between Korda's personal experiences - including the operation itself - and stories about doctors, patients and recovery groups, this book is candid, informative and, above all, hopeful. Korda sheds light on prostate cancer with an honesty and intensity never before seen in a book on this subject. 255 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
