Diseases of External Ear

📖 The Scoop

 Otology is a vast science.  Several books have been exclusively been written on this science.  A separate volume is usually devoted to this science in standard otolaryngology text books.  Currently there is a shift towards compiling books on smaller topics.  This book is such an attempt to devote a small manuscript towards the topic “Diseases of External auditory canal”.   

Advantages of such smaller books on single topics include: 

1. It serves as an efficient tool in modular learning 

2. Makes the learning process less daunting 

3. Size of the book may not serve as a limitation to the amount of content 

4. It also becomes cheaper for the student because a whole text book need not be purchased just to read a single chapter
