Many of the major health concerns that affect men differ significantly from those faced by women. For instance, two-thirds of all lung-cancer victims are men, 84 percent of all AIDS cases are men, and unintentional injuries claim twice as many men as women. On the average, men die seven years earlier than women.
Men's Health Concerns Sourcebook provides information to help men identify, prevent, detect, treat, and cope with their health concerns. The book covers the top ten causes of death in men including diseases of the heart, stroke diseases, prostate disorders, HIV and AIDS, and suicide. It also contains material on other common health concerns for men such as impotence, contraception, circumcision, sleep disorders, diet, nutrition, and fitness.
