Medical student
Barts and the London Chronicle, Autumn 2003 Volume 5, issue 2

"The usage of information or summary boxes and a copious amount of color diagrams and photographs make this pocket-size book an excellent quick reference for the undergraduate medical student and general practitioners."

E-Streams, vol.6, no.7, july 2003

".the simplified diagrams of brain-meltingly complex ENT anatomy is probably one of the most useful aspects of the book.The text is full of nice medical student friendly lists of symptoms and there is definitely a paucity of excess prepositions.All this adds up to some seriously efficient learning of diseases of the ear, nose and/or throat."

The Melbourne University Medical Students Society

"If any UK medical students still have some ENT training in their curriculum, this may well be the book that might inspire themand interest them in our speciality. It is an attractive work and very good value.

.There is a nice problem-orientated approach and a very readable text."

Journal of Laryngology & Otology, July 2003, vol.117
