Textbook of Men’s Health: A Comprehensive Guide to Aging Men’s Health

By Bruno Lunenfeld, Louis J. G. Gooren, Alvaro Morales, John Morley

The second edition of “Textbook of Men’s Health” continues to define and establish the scope of the emerging subspecialty of aging men’s health. This updated version includes new sections on basic sciences and sexual dysfunction, reflecting a shift in approach.

A Focus on Physiological Aging vs. Pathological Processes

The primary mission of this revised edition is to differentiate normal physiological aging in men from pathological processes. It avoids material commonly found in standard textbooks of medicine and geriatrics, maintaining a unique male perspective. This edition emphasizes the age-related decline in sex steroids and other hormones, as well as the clinical and pathological consequences that follow.

Consensus on Diagnostic Criteria and Evidence-Based Medicine

Wherever possible, the book documents consensus on diagnostic criteria, prioritizes evidence-based medicine, and highlights translational science. This ensures that healthcare providers and researchers have access to the most accurate and up-to-date information on aging men’s health.

A Comprehensive Resource for Healthcare Providers and Researchers

Published by CRC Press, the second edition of “Textbook of Men’s Health” was released on December 20, 2007. The hardcover edition spans 766 pages and is available with the ISBN-10: 0415425808 and ISBN-13: 978-0415425803.

This textbook serves as a valuable resource for healthcare providers, researchers, and students seeking a deeper understanding of the complex issues surrounding aging men’s health. By focusing on the unique aspects of male physiology and pathology, this book aims to improve patient care and advance research in this critical area of healthcare.
