Going without the flow: prostrate with a prostate

by Adam Yamey

*** Overcoming the very real fear of disease, medicine and surgery, can be difficult. This is a self-help book for the anxious. *** Fear of the unknown plays a large role in generating medical patients’ anxieties. *** In order to allay the fears of those who dread medical interventions, Adam Yamey shares his own experiences of suffering from a prostate problem, and undergoing the surgery required to resolve it. Sparing the reader the goriest details, he injects his graphic account with insight and witty observations.
