Reviews & Comments About:
Men, Women, and Prostate Cancer
by Barbara Ruin Wainrib, EdD, Sandra Haber, PhD, with Jack Maguire
(Taken from the paperback edition.)
''Barbara Wainrib and Sandra Haber do an excellent job of covering
the many problems a diagnosis of prostate cancer brings, and they've
adopted the eminently sensible course of addressing the person who
is likely to be the prime source of information and support-the
patient's spouse. I was impressed by the high professional standard
of their writing, which is at once thorough and readable. This book
will be extremely helpful to both patients and family members who
are facing a very common malignancy.''
— Alastair Cunningham, cancer survivor and
senior scientist, Ontario Cancer Institute
''Drs. Wainrib and Haber have written a must-read book for prostate
cancer patients and their partners. They provide a clear, warm, and
understanding approach to the frightening medical and psychological
experience of prostate cancer, and they are frank in their discussion
of couples' sexual concerns. Every woman whose partner is suffering
from this disease will want to have this book for both of them. It
promises to make this period of their lives less stressful.''
— Dorothy W. Cantor, Psy.D., Former President,
American Psychological Association
