Abstract
What Men Won't Talk About…and Women Need to Know: A Woman's Perspective on Prostate Cancer by Glenda Standeven is a practical book, designed with a specific purpose—to help women whose husbands have prostate cancer. The slim book is written in an engaging, conversational style as if Standeven is sitting down and chatting with you over coffee, telling you about what happened when her husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer and after. It takes the reader through the whole arc of treatment, emphasising the importance of prescreening for men who might find going to the doctor an unpleasant chore, through treatment, and onto recovery and beyond. The book does not shy away from the repercussions of prostate surgery, including the sexual and emotional ones.
