AB The forty contributors to this textbook are all experts in the various phases of urology on which they have written. Prominent among the contributors are distinguished surgeons such as Swift Joly, Terence Millin, Clifford Morson and Jocelyn Swan. The book does not include every minor clinical entity in urology but should be useful to the student and to the experienced urologist. Several chapters are devoted to prostatectomy in all its aspects and are valuable. Discussion of the use of sulfonamide drugs and the newer antibiotics is up to date. The illustrations are excellent; especially noteworthy are those showing pathologic conditions as seen through the cystoscope. The discussion of bladder neck lesions is full and well illustrated. In general it may be said that this volume is a distinct contribution to urologic literature and its appearance should be welcomed by all urologists.
