Prostate Cancer, the Truth: The LD Chronicles Published by Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated medical urology book from Sioux Falls, SD, author Brad Randall, MD.
Sioux Falls, SD, June 30, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published The LD Chronicles: A Story About a Physician and his Missing Prostate by Brad Randall, MD. The author's most recent book to date is a 6.14 x 9.21 paperback in the medical urology category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/LDChronicles was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
Every year nearly a quarter of a million men are diagnosed with prostate cancer. Dr. Randall was one of those men and lived through the uncertainties that surround a prostate cancer diagnosis. He chose to write about his experience both from the perspective of a patient and as a physician.
The reader will have a first person look at the trials and tribulations along each step of the prostate cancer path: diagnosis, treatment options, robotic prostatectomy, post-operative care issues, and perhaps most prominent on the mind of every man dealing with prostate cancer, erectile dysfunction. Dr. Randall not only shares his personal experiences, but also takes the reader behind the physician/hospital curtain to offer a glimpse into the physician-to-physician interplay that most patients never see.
Interspersed in the narrative is enough anatomy, physiology, and pathology to facilitate the lay reader’s understanding of the topic without being overdone. This book is a short and easy read that is a must for anyone wanting to look at life beyond a diagnosis of prostate cancer.
What sets this book apart from others is Dr. Randall’s self-depreciating style that takes a serious topic and makes it humorous.
“A witty and humorous story detailing the numbing emotion and reality of dealing with the diagnosis of prostate cancer and the potential side effects of impotence and incontinence. This is invaluable information for any man or their family members as they deal with the diagnosis, treatment options and side effects of prostate cancer.”
- Dr. Robert Nadler, MD FACS , Professor of Urology, Director of Robotic and Laparoscopic Surgery, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine
“I thoroughly enjoyed reading The LD Chronicles and very much enjoyed the frank commentary...this book fills an unmet need…the LD Chronicles is entirely humane and compassionate…”
- Dr. Kevin T. McVary, MD-FACS, Professor of Urology, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine
