Whilst the book is not designed to represent a daily reference guide for the majority of the urological fraternity, it clearly does what it sets out to do; provide an up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of a treatment option that perhaps one day we will routinely consider alongside active surveillance and robotic surgery. (Urology News, 1 November 2012)
