Medical Student Review:
A great book for the medical student. Easy to find desired information, tends to focus on the fundamentals. The book addresses topics that seem to come up in questions asked of the medical student. Used copies are easy to find therefore it's a more affordable resource than some of the alternatives.
Great!:
This book is written very well and is totally up to date. Only useful if you want to go into ENT. Way too detailed otherwise. I've seen lots of 3rd year students who want to go into otolaryngology carrying it around in their pockets on ENT rotations. It is not the place to review anatomy. You will need a separate source for anatomy.
