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.

Advanced Prostate Cancer and Me: How I Reduced my PSA 100% Holistically
Product Description
At age 53, I was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. It was in June 2005 that my PSA was 23.5 with a Gleason of 7. All 12 cores of the biopsy had cancer, 2 up to 75%. I knew action had to be taken, but what would I choose? Based on the current trend in medicine, I decided to go the holistic route. My research concluded that I had over 95% probability of recurrence. Therefore, in my use of holistic treatment, in conjunction with traditional treatment I got tremendous results. But sadly 9 months after treatment all signs indicated my cancer was back. I was able to discover a holistic treatment that reduced my PSA 100%.

How We Survived Prostate Cancer: What We Did and What We Should Have Done
Product Description
Facts:
* Prostate cancer is the most common cancer, other than skin cancers, in American men.
* 90% of the 190,000 men diagnosed annually will be cured.
* 2 million men currently live as survivors.
Though many sources exist for men dealing with this dreaded disease, their partners are often left on their own to figure out how to deal with personality changes and sudden “male menopause,” how to redefine love and intimacy, and how to deal with side effects of the treatment.
Victoria Hallerman, an accomplished poet, writes candidly about her and her husband’s experience over the last five years, including sections in his voice as well. A manual for surviving what treatments can do to a marriage, her book is both a compelling narrative and a supportive and informational guidebook. It’s sure to be a boon to the enormous and ever-growing group of wives and partners of prostate cancer survivors who, like the author, need to be able to answer the question “Who are we now?”
