From the Back Cover
A brief book focusing on the most frequently asked questions regarding to ringing in the ears.
* Uses an easy to follow "question and answer" format.
* Covers causes and treatments with an optimistic tone.
* Includes a glossary.
Tinnitus patients have questions that most often their doctors and audiologists can't answer. The disorder is not taught in medical schools and a single frontrunner of a treatment has not emerged. Tinnitus patients typically do not know where to go for help. Thousands resort to chatting on the Internet about their condition. Thousands of others have written to the American Tinnitus Association and to Dr. Jack Vernon for help, compassion, wisdom and answers. This book is a reflection of Dr. Vernon's 30-year dedication to this problem. His optimism for the condition and willingness to try out new ideas has pushed the mysterious disorder of tinnitus into a national and NIH-funded spotlight. Tinnitus: Questions and Answers is a short book focusing on the most frequently asked questions about tinnitus. The questions in this book are from patients. The answers are written for patients and for interested health care providers too. The book covers causes, treatments, and other topics with a format similar to the column written by the author in "Tinnitus Today" magazine. Other topics will include such things as drug treatments, dental issues relating to tinnitus, hearing loss and tinnitus, and other related ear disorders.
Jack Vernon was born in Tennessee, grew up in Virginia, and was a pilot during WWII. He attended the University of Virginia where he earned his BA, MA, and Ph.D. in psychology. In 1966, he moved to Oregon to begin clinical research in tinnitus. He soon founded the Tinnitus Clinic at the Oregon Health Sciences University, the first tinnitus clinic in the U.S.
Barbara Tabachnick Sanders' poetry and short stories appeared in "West" in the late 1970s. She has authored more than 70 articles on other health topics. She has been a feature writer for "Tinnitus Today" since 1993 and its editor since 1995.

This Q&A Scores an "A",
By woolman (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tinnitus: Questions and Answers (Paperback)
Quite possibly the best book ever written for the tinnitus patient. If there's one better, I haven't encountered it since my introduction to tinnitus 32 years ago. It's just that this one covers so much ground, and breaks it all down into such clear, manageable chunks. There's no lost time here: Quickly find and read what applies to you and skip the rest. But be forewarned: Tinnitus Today editor Tabachnick-Sanders writing is so conversational, so informative, that I found myself reading about many topics that did not apply at all to my experience of tinnitus. More importantly, I found answers to questions no G.P., E.N.T. or audiologist has ever been able to answer for me. I also found hope, coming away with the sense that, finally, the research community is seriously pursuing effective tinnitus treatments. That alone was worth the cost. In short, Tinnitus Questions & Answers is well worth punching in that credit card number and clicking "submit."

This review is from: Tinnitus: Questions and Answers (Paperback)
When I was first diagnosed with Tinnitus a month ago, I was thoroughly confused. The audiologist who confirmed the hearing loss was of the " deal with it" school. I needed more than that. My greatest source of help has been the American Tinnitus Association (ATA.org) and this is a book produced by them. If you are experiencing this phenomenon or if you have someone in your family who is, this book is a terrific source of information. It is done in a question and answer format and I can almost assure you that any question you might have is covered in this book in some fashion or another. And the reader is never made to feel that they are stupid for asking "that" question. It was very helpful to me.

Wow... everything you also forgot to ask,
By "mw@boldplans.com" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tinnitus: Questions and Answers (Paperback)
I was browsing the bookstore for books on Tinnitus and found 3 to compare. This one was the most expensive but by far the most informative, laid out in Q&A style in so many categories like hypnosis, drugs, music, etc. What I really liked was that it didn't contain all this "deal with it and relax" ... that you see en masse in other books. The binding and print quality is really nice so you can go back to it and not worry about your investment -- it's a book I'll keep on my bookshelf. It's about 240 pages and is a must read, in my opinion, because you are probably like me and want to know everything you can about something you are reminded about all too often. Here you can pick your topic and read it one area at a time.
