Amazon.co.uk Review
If you're a man and are interested in staying healthy, then this could well be an essential reference book for you.
There is no sensationalism and no fuss, just sensible-sounding advice about important aspects of everyday living. It offers guidance on how men can look after themselves physically, emotionally and sexually.
Talking about sex, there is even an updated section on Viagra (there, that has certainly got you interested now), while stress, the curse of modern-day life, is also discussed. There is a lengthy opening chapter on understanding the male body and while that may seem a little overlong, the diagrams offer some relief and it is interesting stuff in the main.
A survival guide to fatherhood merits a whole, albeit relatively brief, chapter and this revised edition also features an expanded A-Z of Common Health Problems in Men.
The back of the book includes a useful-looking glossary--which simplifies many of the medical terms--details on self-help groups and a list of Web sites about men's health, showing the book is up with the times.
But it does not attempt to take the place of your GP and in fact gives help on how you can be "making the most of your doctor." This is not a publication you would read cover to cover, but more something you would have close to hand, ready to consult in times of curiosity and need. --Carole Butterworth
