CURRENT Diagnosis and Treatment in Otolaryngology--Head and Neck Surgery
"Full of information that most ENT surgeons have little experience with...great for exam prep or for a quick read before a presentation...I would recomment that ENT trainees buy this book" Journal of Laranology, March 2012
Gene Therapy of Cochlear Deafness
"This volume reviews current concepts and recent research findings of the application of gene therapy to the inner ear. Various forms of gene therapy, disorders that are potential targets for gene therapy, techniques for gene delivery, and mechanisms of gene targeting, and also obstacles that have yet to be overcome are discussed." --Book Jacket.
Neurobiology of Alzheimer's Disease
This volume brings together pre-clinical and clinical research on topics highly relevant to the development and improvement of our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The combination of both research areas will appeal to a broad range of researchers from basic scientists to neurologists. The topics cover both established and more recent areas of research on the underlying causes of this disease which are still not fully understood more than 100 years after its first description by Alois Alzheimer. This broad perspective demonstrates how research into AD is evolving along with considering clinical aspects of the disease. The chosen contributors are well-placed to provide expert views...
Current Diagnosis & Treatment
Includes more than 400 clinical photographs and line drawings and a comprehensive radiology chapter with more than 150 images.--excerpted from p. 4 of cover.

The collection presents early findings and case studies on a wide range of areas, including: Soft Tissues Mechanics Bio-Engineering and Biomechanics Natural Materials & Bio-Inspiration Novel Techniques and Experiments in Biomechanics Tissue Engineering Cells Mechanics.
Bailey's Head and Neck Surgery
Designed to enhance the learning experience for both practicing otolaryngologists and otolaryngology residents, Bailey’s Head & Neck Surgery—Otolaryngology, 6th Edition, delivers concise, practical information in all areas of this complex field. Dr. Clark A. Rosen (Laryngology) and his hand-picked editorial team representing all of the sub-disciplines of Head & Neck Surgery-Otolaryngology of Drs. Stacey Gray (rhinology), Patrick Ha (Head and Neck Surgery), Charles Limb (Otology), Stephen Park (Facial Plastics and Reconstructive Surgery), and Gresham Richter (Pediatric Otolaryngology) ensure that all content in this two-volume text is current, useful, and evidence based. Each chapter has been written to increase the reader’s understanding, retention, and ability to successfully apply information in everyday practice.
Genetic Hearing Impairment
A decade of innovative findings in the research of molecular biology of hearing and deafness is reflected in this volume. The genetic causes for many types of syndromic and non-syndromic deafness are identified and genotypic-phenotypic relationships are explored. Although the type and degree of deafness caused by mutations in different genes significantly overlap, relatively unique age-related audiometric profiles are also emerging. For example, the audioprofile of DFNA1 and DFNA6-14 is a low-frequency sensorineural hearing loss; with DFNA8-14 it is a mid-frequency sensorineural hearing loss, and with DFNA2, DFNA5 and DFNA20-26 it is a high-frequency progressive hearing loss. Recognizing such audioprofiles can facilitate well-guided decision-making in clinical practice and can direct genetic testing for deafness. With an accurate genetic diagnosis, prognostic information can be provided to patients and their families. In the future, gene-specific habilitation options may also become available. To keep up to date with new clinical standards of diagnosing genetic hearing impairment, this book is indispensable reading to otorhinolaryngologists and audiologists.
Cochlear Implants
The second edition of Cochlear Implants provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art techniques for evaluating and selecting the cochlear implant candidate. Clear descriptions of surgical techniques guide the reader through implantation procedures, and chapters address important issues such as speech production, language development, and education in implant recipients. This second edition features: New chapters on the genetics of hearing loss, sound processing, binaural hearing, and electroacoustic stimulation Complete discussion of the most recent advances in evaluation procedures, surgery, programming methods, speech processing strategies, and more Precise, easy-to-follow table...
Sounds Wild and Broken
An awe-inspiring exploration of the sounds of the living Earth, and the joys and threats of human music, language and noise. 'A symphony, filled with the music of life . . . fascinating, heartbreaking, and beautifully written.' ELIZABETH KOLBERT, author of The Sixth Extinction ' Sounds Wild and Broken affirms Haskell as a laureate for the earth, his finely tuned scientific observations made more potent by his deep love for the wild he hopes to save.' NEW YORK TIMES 'Wonderful . . . a reminder that the narrow aural spectrum on which most of us operate, and the ways in which human life is led, blocks out the planet's great, orchestral richness.' GUARDIAN We live on a planet alive with song, mu...
