From the reviews of the third edition:

“Klein and Jones, with the support of 50 experts, wrote an updated and expanded third version of their excellent textbook. … A substantial part of the book dealt with the treatments of localised, locally advanced and metastatic disease. … This textbook presents an inclusive coverage of practical information and can be recommended for all urologists and oncologists, either certified or still in training.” (European Urology Today, Vol. 25 (2), March-May, 2013)

“This update on the management of prostate cancer is a must read not only for every urologist, but also for any clinician who wants a better understanding of this disease. … This book is definitely needed in an area where there have been such rapid changes. Although the book is targeted at medical students, residents, practitioners in urology other specialties, even lay people can appreciate some of the chapters. They are written very clearly, with easily understandable graphs and illustrations.” (Jack Mydlo, Doody’s Book Reviews, 2012)
