The whole way<br />in which the authors have written this book is commendable; the chapters are<br />succinct, easy to follow and a pleasure to read...Is it value for money? – a definite<br />yes even at twice the price. Of course I never exaggerate but if you breathe,<br />you should own this book!"<br /><br /><em>Ian Pearce,<br />Urology News, June 2010</em> <br />
