Summary:

This quick reference guide fills the void of an easy-to-read, concise, but comprehensive book encompassing all aspects of rhinology and allergy. Each chapter follows a uniform outline to facilitate quick review of a topic, and the comprehensive nature of each chapter provides depth. As a review book, it is ideal for residents in training and those preparing for board and in-service training examinations as well as medical students looking for a "deeper dive" into the world of rhinology.
