"This book indeed proves to be an invaluable revision for our exit exam, but it also has much to offer to the general ENT surgeon, the paediatrician and those in primary care and it may well inspire the more senior medical student. This is a book packed with practical commonsense tips gained from a lifetime of super-specialisation." - Liam M Flood FRCS FRCSI, Middlesbrough UK
