Harry Herr is known to all of us as a world leader in urological oncology, and we have all learned from his thoughtful approach to the subject and from his surgical excellence. What many might not know is that he is also a specialist in the history of urology, and indeed is in charge of that section of the Journal of Urology . He writes here about the surgical treatment of the enlarged prostate, which should form the starting point of future lectures on the management of BPH.
