It's the No. 2 cancer killer in men--and it will strike almost every male who lives long enough to get it. But when a seasoned science journalist was diagnosed with it, doctors gave him confusing and contradictory advice. In his painful journey through the maze, he learned that where doctors disagree--as they do over how to treat many life-threatening diseases--an educated patient can help educate them.
它是男性的第二大致命癌症杀手，几乎每个寿命足够长的男性都有可能患上。但是，当一位经验丰富的科学记者被诊断出患有这种疾病时，医生们却给了他令人困惑且相互矛盾的建议。在他痛苦地穿越迷宫般的治疗过程中，他了解到，当医生们意见不统一时——就像他们在如何治疗许多危及生命的疾病上存在分歧一样——受过教育的患者可以反过来帮助教育医生。
