A comprehensive and easy-to-read reference text written from the angle that 'prevention is better than cure'. Directed to the classical endocrinology of the prostate and its diseases, Oestrogens, Phyto-oestrogens and the Pathogenesis of Prostatic Disease examines the part that oestrogens play in growth regulation and disease progression, and discusses in depth the potential role of dietary factors, in particular the phyto-oestrogens, in restraining both malignancies and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
