This book represents a valuable resource for medical students and
training otolaryngologists. Residents need consise and quick
information and this is what "Otolaryngology: Basic Science and Clinical
Review" will provide for them. The text is organ-specific with an
introduction of basic principles that underlie patient care. A "must"
for prospective and practicing otolaryngologists alike.
Provides a review of the basic and clinical sciences that are the
foundation for the practice of otolaryngology-head and neck surgery.
The topics included are quite diverse, covering the expansive range of
knowledge needed for a complete understanding of otolaryngology-head and
neck surgery. Many of the topics are approached from both a basic
science and clinical viewpoint. Clinical correlations, which help to
make the information relevant for residents and practicing
otolaryngologists, accompany many of the basic science principles
presented. The Self-Test Questions, for which answers are provided at
the end of the book, are very helpful for the reader to assess his or
her understanding of the concepts presented. This textbook provides a
clearly presented and thorough basic and clinical science foundation,
which is fundamental to the understanding and practice of
otolaryngology. No other textbook in otolaryngology-head and neck
surgery currently serves such a purpose. This book would be an
excellent text for otolaryngology residents to read cover-to-cover early
in their residency training. Indeed, as it was developed from an
otolaryngology basic science course, it would serve as an outstanding
textbook for use in other such courses in training programs throughout
the country. The book would also be useful as a review text for
residents before the annual Otolaryngology Training Examination or for
recent residency graduates preparing for the boards. In addition, it
would be a good reference for practicing otolaryngologists, providing an
update on the current state of knowledge in the basic and clinical
sciences underlying our diverse specialty."--The Laryngoscope
