5.0 out of 5 stars Definitive ENT handbook, September 16, 2001

By	Robert Lane (Missouri) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

During my 4th year of medical school I struggled and ultimately failed to find a concise yet comprehensive handbook of otolaryngology. After reviewing many handbooks of ENT during the first 2 years of my residency, I have concluded that Dr. Pasha's book is the most well-organized, concise review of otolaryngology available. All ENT interns, junior residents, and 4th year medical students should have this book. It is worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Otolaryngology: : Head & Neck Surgery, October 7, 2000

By	Jaseem Uddin (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews

An excellent book on Otolarynology; very comprehensive, yet easy to read, less mistakes; a practical tool useful not only for medical students and residents, but also for all otolaryngologists currently active in practice; great format; lots of up to date practical clinical information; certainly better than the book by K. J. Lee. Also recommend reading Facial Plastic Section which is outstanding

3.0 out of 5 stars Medical Student Review, August 19, 2007

By	Benjamin Feldman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Otolaryngology: Head and Neck Surgery--A Clinical & Reference Guide, Second Edition (Paperback)

This book is indeed used by many of the ENT residents. I didn't find it as useful on my externships and ENT rotations as other resources. The index is very skeletal and information is sometimes difficult to find. It is more useful for the resident trying to memorize lists of topic associations for their board exams, than it is for medical students who are concerned with the fundamentals and with correctly answering pimping questions. Furthermore, it is very expensive and used copies are difficult to find. Personally, I found using ENT secrets in conjunction with Lange's book more effective.
