Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"Well known international experts on urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse provide an in-depth review of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and newer techniques for the treatment of this condition. ... The book is designed for anyone treating urinary incontinence, and specifically urologists and urogynecologists. ... I commend the authors for taking on the heroic task of providing a comprehensive book on the ever-changing field of urinary incontinence. ... This is a valuable resource for anyone treating patients with urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse." (Akhil Das, Doody's Review Service, March, 2009)

"The expertise and the range or diversity of the authors involved in urology, gynecology, pharmacology and operative techniques make this book very comprehensive. Social aspects of incontinence, rarely considered in the literature, were described in the last part. This state-of -the-art, richly illustrated textbook is an excellent tool for practitioners involved in the management of incontinence and prolapse" (European Urology, June/July 2009)

"This comprehensive, well-illustrated, state-of-the-art reference book on Continence, largely aimed at urologists and gynaecologists, provides the latest research insights and the whole spectrum of treatment strategies with the latest surgical techniques.
