"Everything you ever wanted to know about ears from two outstanding physician scientists. I loved this book!" Donna Shalala, Former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services

In The Ear Book, Drs. Thomas J. Balkany and Kevin D. Brown, recognized experts on ears and hearing, explain how the anatomy of the ear facilitates hearing and balance and then examine the causes, symptoms, and treatment of common problems of the outer, middle, and inner ear. Their explanations take the mystery out of hearing aids, the proper care of ears, and how the pressurized conditions of scuba diving and air travel affect the ears. And they debunk ear-related mythsfrom the notion that exposure to loud noise strengthens the ear to the idea that tinnitus can be cured with nutrientsand urge readers to stop using ear candling or Q-tips to get rid of wax.

Drs. Balkany and Brown address such common questions as: Can dizziness be cured? How loud is too loud? Why do my ears ring? Do cochlear implants work for nerve deafness? What promise do innovations in gene therapy and stem cell therapy hold for the future? Fully illustrated and including helpful tables, hearing preservation tips, a glossary of terms, lists of ear medications and resources, and suggestions for further reading, The Ear Book is sure to be a welcome family guide.

"This book is gem for everyone with questions about their ears. I highly recommend itespecially the chapter on Myths of the Ear!" D. Bradley Welling, MD, PhD, Harvard University Department of Otolaryngology
