This first-edition reference work is a comprehensive resource designed to address a wide range of topics related to men’s health. It contains 430 well-written articles across two volumes, covering everything from diseases and treatments to the social and cultural factors influencing men’s health. The content is organized into 11 categories that range from anatomy to treatment options. This collection builds on previous titles such as Magill’s Medical Guide, but it takes on a more specialized focus and perspective with detailed yet accessible, content. Hundreds of photos, diagrams, and tables accompany the text, which provide more clarity and understanding. A standout feature is the regular appearance of sidebars, which offer quick facts on medical topics that make the information easily digestible. The volumes also include a glossary, lists of additional resources, and specific indexes. This publication is particularly relevant in a COVID-era world, where credible health information is in high demand.
VERDICT With content focused on diseases, prevention, diet, and nutrition, this recommended reference work is a reliable source amid the overwhelming and sometimes contradictory information found online.
