In the last 15 years, rhinology has been one of the fastest growing areas of otorhinolaryngology-head and neck surgery. Despite the large quantity of smaller, narrowly focused texts, i.e. surgical manuals for endoscopic sinus surgery, titles on medical rhinology, and allergy textbooks, there has been no attempt to prepare a comprehensive reference that integrates the basic science and clinical knowledge of the specialty. USPs: Concise, comprehensive textbook combining the three areas of rhinology (basic science, medical, surgical); Integration of advanced, up-to-date basic science with present clinical knowledge; Joint European/US authorship (approx. 70%/30%); Evidence-based approach; content tied to current international rhinology and allergy guidelines; Covers the content of the EU Academy/UEMS, UK FRCS, and the US board otolaryngology exam curricula Target readership:Main rhinology textbook for senior/foundation house officers, residents, or specialty registrars, used for reference and to prepare for specialty otorhinolaryngology exams, including the MRCS/DOHNS and FRCS (ORL-HNS) exams in the UK, the EU Academy/UEMS exam, national board exams in other EU countries, and the American board exam; Basic training textbook for rhinology fellows in EU and US fellowship programs and for those in EU, USA, and other international visiting rhinology fellowships; Practicing otorhinolaryngologists with a significant rhinology workload who have a need for an authoritative and up-to-date reference (many of the significant advances took place in the last 10 years
