During his career at the Martinez Administration Medical Center in California Dr Merrill was responsible for the care of thousands of men with prostate cancer and has performed hundreds of curative radical retropubic prostatectomies. In this eBook Dr. Merrill shares the knowledge gained from this experience with the reader. It is the author's strong belief that no one should die of prostate cancer in the 21st century. Dr Merrill also believes that the key to beating this potentially lethal cancer is early diagnosis and aggressive surgical removal of the cancer before it has spread beyond the confines of the prostate. Younger cancer free males should use the information in this book to be sure that they are being properly screened for prostate cancer at appropriate intervals. Men who have developed prostate cancer may use its contents to familiarize themselves with the pros and cons of the available methods for treating prostate cancer including open surgery, radiation therapy, brachytherapy, cryosurgery, laparoscopic surgery and robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery. It is essential that the male with prostate cancer have this information at his finger tips when discussing his treatment options with the urologist or radiotherapist. The treatment choices for males with metastatic disease are also addressed while stressing the advantages of the subcapsular approach to orchidectomy. Finally, Dr Merrill addresses the all important issue of how to pick a surgeon.

In You Don't Know Anything…!: A Manual for Parenting Your Teenagers, we will take into consideration those ages between twelve and eighteen, ending at the general time at which most teens matriculate to college or independent living, although twenty years of age is more commonly thought of as the demarcation into adulthood.

Equally as important, but less often mentioned, is the recognition that adolescence is also a time of "feeling" unparalleled in any other stage. Your son or daughter is feeling the possibilities that exist in a world just opening up to him or her and suffering the fears that come with breaking away from the warm dependency of the core family to venture into the un- known. Your child's adolescence will be marked by the longing to turn back to simpler times without responsibility, together with the urge to march forward, armed with little more than dreams of what might be. This book is designed to encourage in you a deeper appreciation of their challenges.

There are tons of books out there telling you how to improve your chances of getting into medical school. All of these tomes are based on the assumption that the prospect reader wants to become a medical doctor. The author of this eBook believes that, in this day and age, the question should be not how you can get into Medical School but whether or not you should ever consider going to Medical School in the first place.<br>This book paints a very different picture of the medical profession than the one most students, and their parents, envision when they set out on the long arduous pathway to achieve a MD degree. In some ways deciding on a medical career today is similar to entering a bad marriage that was doomed to failure from its inception because of some fatal flaw in one or both of the participants or because the supposed benefits of the union were wildly exaggerated.<br>When considering a medical career today one must carefully weigh the options available in today&#39;s multifaceted work place wherein there are literally endless opportunities to become financially secure in a variety of challenging occupations. More importantly, today&#39;s prospective medical student should consider very carefully whether the ultimate financial benefits of a medical education can even remotely compensate them for all the years of study and hard work it will take to become an MD, let alone the massive debt most of them will have to take on to achieve this rather dubious goal.<br>This 10 chapter 6653 word fact filled eBook deals with all of these important issues in a straight forward fashion. If you, or your son or daughter, is considering a medical education this may be one of the most important books you will ever read! <br>Finally, this book should be read by young people, students in their junior or senior years of high school. If you stumble onto the book after having completed a year or two of premed in college and then decide that a medical career is not for you, a significant amount of time and money will have been wasted taking courses like chemistry and physics that may have little or no application to other fields of interest.

Antitheism (sometimes anti-theism) implies an opposition to theism. The etymological roots of the word lie in the Greek anti-and theismos. The term has had a range of applications; in secular contexts, it typically refers to a direct opposition to organized religion or, to the belief in any deity. While in a theistic context, it sometimes refers to opposition of a specific god or gods. The anti-theist is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as &quot;One opposed to belief in the existence of a god.&quot; The earliest citation given for this meaning is from 1833. An antitheist may be opposed to belief in the existence of any god or gods, not merely one in particular. <br><br>This book is not necessarily written to convert anyone to a recognition or belief in our creator but, if such were to be the case, that&#39;s all to the good. Rather, the book is meant to provide the reader with some logical and thoughtful reasoning concerning those who do believe in a creator and those who proclaim that such does not exist. We don&#39;t wish to &quot;sell&quot; anyone on anything, especially, any particular belief system, The purpose is to acquaint the reader with the rich heritage of theistic and anti-theistic thought that many of us, both those living and those not, have had to say on the subject. <br><br>Today, not all, but a majority of atheists are liberals, progressives, far leftists, socialists and communists. Mostly, they are markedly un-patriotic, few hunt and fewer under fifty ever served in our armed forces. As a group, they divorce more often than Christians, voted for obama and espouse and support such nebulous issues as &#39;social justice&#39; and the nihilistic &#39;occupy&#39; movement. Few of them have any real knowledge of the bible or religion and therefore don&#39;t really understand what it is they are professing not to believe in.<br><br>Having spent many decades as an airline pilot, I have had countless occasion to gaze at the stars and wonders of our world and our universe. Of all my many compatriots, those who shared my skies, I would say that none were or are atheists or agnostics. The wonders and balance of nature and the marvelous physics of flight present the truths of our creator in ways simply too overwhelming to discount. <br><br>Some of the lost souls in non-believer camp have the gift of intellect and it is for them this book is written. I ask those prescient few to thoughtfully examine their anti-theist positions in light of the concepts, thoughts and facts we present. If even one of them comes to the realization of their Creators realty, the book will have served its purpose.<br><br>The title of the book is, of course, insulting to those who do not share my beliefs and it is purposely so. If you reject the notion of our Creator, I wish the book to give you pause. It can only be through ignorance, serious error and lack of imagination that an individual can adopt the negative and empty mindset of the anti-theist. Sadly, however, I have learned that the majority of atheists are indeed stupid and that such a level of reasoning is forever beyond them. Be you one, I offer no hope, go your lonely way then…
