Reviews / Votes
"A substantial update since 2002 ... superb colour illustrations, especially clinical ones. This book might well attract students to ENT surgery." (BMA Medical Book Competition - Programme and Award Winners, September 2008) "If you need a decent ENT book and don't want to spend a small fortune then I would highly recommend this text. Not only is it affordable but it has all you need to know to get through medical finals and beyond. Another fabulous text in the lecture notes series."
