This review is from: Prostate Brachytherapy Made Complicated (2nd Edition) (Textbook Binding)

The text is written for practitioners. The third edition costs over $150; however, available 2nd editions for as little as $6 could be used as must-read for the informed prostate cancer patient contemplating or planning to have brachytherapy (radioactive seed implants). Professionals should definitely read the 3rd edition, which adds a very important practioner-author (Merrick)and should not rely on the 2nd edition that I read as a patient. Kent Wallner writes with a rather whimsical style, which does not detract from the authoritative nature of the book. The book has very few wasted words -- good for the busy reader. I am 3 weeks post-procedure and heartily appreciate the wisdom this book has given to me as an informed patient.
