| King Allergy in ENT Practice Reviews"This book fills a void by providing a substantial amount of well-written and well-organized practical information by a group of authors who qualify as experienced otolaryngologic allergists. ..A single source for essentially every area of ear, nose, and throat allergy office practices."--Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology "Allergy in ENT Practice is a comprehensive, yet practical guide to establishing and managing the otolaryngic office. It is thorough in its scope and detailed in its approach to individual topics. The textbook is well grounded in the science upon which otolaryngic allergy is based and provides a smooth and seamless application of these scientific principles to clinical practice. Through the use of numerous examples, illustrations, and tables, the book offers a clear discussion of the provision of allergy treatment, from diagnostic testing, through vial preparation, to immunotherapy. Another strength of [the book] is its ability to present information to physicians and allied health personnel at various levels of training and experience. There are numerous "Nurse's Notes" that offer highlighted messages of central importance in clinical practice. Through this method of providing information in different formats and through various levels of discussion, the textbook is able to provide a useful guide to all professionals interested in otolaryngic allergy. In conclusion, the second edition of Allergy in ENT Practice builds upon the thoroughness and quality of its predecessor. It is updated well and provides current, evidence-based recommendations in the practice of otolaryngic allergy. It has no obvious weaknesses or omissions that would limit its use. The current authors are to be commended in providing a textbook that retains the clear message of the first edition yet nicely enhances its review of the specialty. Allergy in ENT Practice will remain a core textbook in the practice of otolaryngic allergy for many years to come."--Head & Neck "A valuable and compacy resource."--The Laryngoscope "An excellent chapter provides the practical "need to know" immunology relevant to a clinical allergy practice. The book's strength is the insight provided by experienced authors into the common pitfalls and confusing aspects of an allergy practice. This is a must read for any otolaryngologist hoping to expand his or her scopy of practice into allergy. This "how-to-" resource is well written by leaders in the field. The second edition does an excellent job of accounting for the latest advances in immunology, allergy testing, and pharmacotherapy." --Doody's Book Review |
