Thirty million men suffer from some form of erectile dysfunction, according to recent estimates. While literature on the problem has been available for decades, generally it takes the form of dry textbooks written in "medicalese." Overcoming Impotence is, in contrast, user-friendly, emotionally supportive, and extremely informative. Writing in straightforward layman's terms Dr. J. Stephen Jones, a leading urologist, addresses the serious questions that men or their significant others may have about an increasingly common condition.Dr. Jones says at the outset to the reader that he is not alone in experiencing these problems - he has plenty of company! He discusses normal patterns of sexual arousal and activity, explains how physicians diagnose and identify the causes of impotence, and tells men what they should expect at the urologist's office.Next Dr. Jones reviews a full range of treatments, from lifestyle changes, through the latest information on the benefits and side effects of Viagra, to penile injection therapy, vascular surgery, penile prosthetics, and psychotherapy. He emphasizes that each man may make a different choice for his individual needs, and he concludes with a look at upcoming drugs that are now being developed.Complete with an appendix of additional resources (organizations, support groups, educational material, and web sites) and a glossary of medical terms, this engaging, down-to-earth guide is an all-in-one resource giving men everything they need to know about a serious though very treatable medical problem.

Are you tired of waiting for your child to “outgrow” bedwetting? Have you tried medication, bedwetting alarms or Miralax to no avail? In this groundbreaking, easy-to-follow book, Wake Forest University pediatric urologist Steve Hodges, M.D., spells out the only reliable solution to bedwetting and daytime accidents: M.O.P., the Modified O’Regan Protocol. M.O.P. — named for Dr. Sean O’Regan, a pioneer in bedwetting research — is based on a simple, proven fact: bedwetting is caused by chronic, severe constipation. Stool piles up in the rectum, pressing against the bladder; only when the rectum is cleared out on a daily basis can it shrink back to size and stop aggravating the bladder. Dr. Hodges’ published research proves daily enemas are the only effective way to clear out the rectum and stop bedwetting for good. M.O.P. also resolves daytime pee accidents (enuresis) and poop accidents (encopresis). The pediatric urology team at Mayo Clinic calls M.O.P. “incredibly effective.” Parents call it “life changing” and “a life saver.” “The M.O.P. Book” includes: how to give your child an enema, safety guidelines, a supply list, how to prevent a relapse, and advice on collaborating with your M.D. “The M.O.P. Book” builds on Dr. Hodges’ acclaimed first book, “It’s No Accident.” If your family is worn out from your child’s struggles with accidents, you will be grateful for “The M.O.P. Book.”

One of Galileo's fingers is in a museum in Florence, Napoleon's severed penis is in the hands, as it were, of an American urologist. And the brain of the greatest thinker of the 20th century lay until recently in two muday cookie jars under a box behind a beer cooler in Wichita, Kansas. On Einstein's death in 1955 Princeton pathologist Thomas Harvey seized the chance to salvage the great thinker's brain. Possessed by the idea that it might hold the key to the enigma of Einstein's genius, Harvey became the unlikely custodian of the organ responsible for the Theory of Relativity - a theory whose centenary is celebrated in 2005. The author tells the bizarre story of Einstein's brain as it roamed the world in mayonnaise jars and courier packages, taking over one man's life for half a century.
