Infections of the Ears, Nose, Throat, and Sinuses, 2nd Edition 

“The purpose of the book is to make information about common and rare ENT infections accessible, to improve familiarity with them, their diagnosis, complications, and treatment. The book is needed and serves both general practitioners, such as pediatricians who encounter these infections, and more specialized doctors, such as ENT and infectious disease fellows as well as experts. The book is of high quality and can be beneficial to its target audience… I recommend it to colleagues, fellows (ID and ENT), and pediatric residents especially for topics related to common infections in children such as acute otitis media, sinusitis, and mastoiditis.” – Itay Berger, MD 

Otologic Surgery, 5th Edition 

“This book has become the standard primary reference for otologic surgery, now in its fifth edition. Since its first publication in 1994, the book has continued to improve by adding new material to each edition, including new procedures, technology, and online content. Each new edition is necessary to cover the expanding information in this field. Like all the previous editions, this is an outstanding textbook and one of the primary references for any otologic surgeon, resident, or fellow.” – Alan Micco, MD 

Atlas of Head and Neck Pathology, 4th Edition 

“This atlas remains one of the most important books in head and neck pathology and the surgical pathology world in general. It is an excellent resource for pathology trainees and practicing pathologists. It can be used as a quick reference during sign-out, as well as a helpful tool in the frozen section room.” – Kyle Perry, MD 

Otolaryngology: Head and Neck Surgery: Clinical Reference Guide, 6th Edition 

“This handbook serves as an authoritative review of the breadth of otolaryngology topics… It is an invaluable resource as a clinical refresher or for in-service/boards studying.” – Karina Yu, MD 

Local Flaps in Facial Reconstruction, 4th Edition 

“This fourth edition of a book on the use of local flaps has undergone a major revamp, with updated procedures, photographs, algorithms to assist in selecting the ideal flap design, and new clinical case studies. The generous selection of flaps presented for reconstruction of the scalp, face, and neck is ideal for any surgeons in this area of reconstructive surgery… Reconstructive surgeons will be rewarded by reading this well-written and informative book.” – Jeffrey Rosenthal, MD
