This book from Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Dr. Vikas Sinha, covering the practical side of ENT (कान, नाक एवं गला). It is described by its own author as practical, unique and to the point, and that is a fair summary: it is a short working guide for the ward and the practical examination, not a theory textbook.
The 5th edition is thoroughly updated with new images and content as per the NMC curriculum, and is built on the competency-based medical education curriculum with all the important practical competencies covered. Its 18 chapters follow the shape of the ENT posting: history taking in ENT, then history and examination of the ear, the nose and paranasal sinuses, the oral cavity, salivary glands, tonsil and pharynx, larynx, neck, thyroid gland and cranial nerves — followed by X-rays in ENT, operations, audiology, calorimetry, applied anatomy of bones and instruments, closing with frequently asked questions and case presentation in ENT. Clinical photographs, diagrams and tables run throughout.
The book is aimed squarely at the undergraduate beginning a first ENT ward posting, which is when a student most needs to be told what to do rather than what to know; it then works as a refresher before the examination. Postgraduates use it to reappraise the "must know" facts, particularly the sections on X-rays, operations, audiology, osteology, instruments and the FAQs — though the author is explicit that PG students should turn to advanced reference books for depth. At 256 pages it is deliberately short. It also carries DigiNerve access. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.
