Logan Turner's Diseases of the Nose, Throat, and Ear, Sixth Edition elaborates the treatment of malignant disease of the larynx and ear. This book covers relevant topics, including sulfa drugs and antibiotics, peroral endoscopy, and affections of the paranasal sinuses. Organized into 43 chapters, this edition begins with an overview of the functions of the larynx that vary in significance, including protection of the lungs, phonation, fixation of the chest, and a channel for respiration. This text then explores the various processes of examination of the cavities of the nose. Other chapters consider the deformity called saddle nose, which consists in a sinking-in of the dorsum of the nose. This book discusses as well the examination of chronic catarrh of the middle ear. The final chapter deals with the congenital defects of the labyrinth, which are responsible for the condition known as sporadic congenital deaf-mutism. This book is a valuable resource for clinicians.

Excerpt from Diseases of the Nose, Pharynx, and Ear This volume is intended to present disease as the author has seen it during an experience of nearly twenty-five years, while in touch with the work of others. It has been the authors aim to answer in detail those questions regarding the course and outcome of diseases which cause the less experienced observer the most anxiety in an individual case - questions to which an answer is not easily obtained from text-books. In order to carry out this plan, the book could not be written with the brevity and sharp subdivision of topics which have made some of the smaller works popular with students. A textbook should present to the student all the facts bearing on the subject, and present them in their logical development. But, on the other hand, the work is not intended as an encyclopedic treatise, and hence lacks the literary and historical completeness proper to the latter. In the therapeutic part the author has aimed to detail only those procedures which have stood the test of critical experience, and to omit those that have failed under this test, even though sanctioned by the tradition of text-books. As a requisite for all surgical work, topographic anatomy has been given a liberal space. Since anatomic statements are necessarily based upon the labor of professional anatomists, it has seemed proper to the author to draw, as well, upon the superior illustrations in some of the anatomic works less accessible to the English student. It is especially to the works of Zuckerkandl and of Politzer to which he is indebted for anatomic illustrations.
