"This book deserves a place among the useful and strong texts in rhinology - it provides enough comprehensive information for the trainees all the way to complementing the practice of tertiary university teaching hospital rhinologists. The proportion of contributors from the UK also makes it an appropriate text to refer to for both the FRCS examination and beyond." (R Gohil, The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, November 1, 2023)
