The February 26 Meeting Video
The Secret Life of the Prostate: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly is online.
Ericka Johnson, PhD, professor of gender and society, Linköping University, Sweden, made a presentation to ASPI on Feb. 26 about new book on the prostate entitled, "A Cultural Biography of the Prostate."
She examined the gland from a societal and historic point of view; the mistreatment and manhandling of men and their prostates throughout history, how the same surgical group that created the mastectomy went on to roll out the prostatectomy, how famed medical artists did not take note of the prostate until the 15th century, and other facts and myths about the prostate.
