This book from AITBS Publishers, India is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Prof. (Dr.) Santosh Kumar Swain, covering diseases of the ear, nose and throat (कान, नाक एवं गला) in a multi colour edition. It is written for undergraduate medical students, with all topics explained in a simple and concise manner rather than at the length of a full reference text.
The book's premise is stated plainly by its author: it is a very simplified version of the large-volume textbook, and its purpose is to let a student gain mastery over the subject in a short period. ENT gets limited teaching time in the MBBS course relative to how much detail it contains, and students routinely start a thick ENT textbook and never finish it. This one is built to be finished — the material is easily grasped, and it functions as ready-made help for undergraduate students during examinations and for interns, residents and consultants during patient management.
The distinguishing feature is what closes each chapter. Every chapter carries clinical tips, must-read clinical cases and "Pearls of the Chapter" — the elements the author identifies as the book's uniqueness, and the parts that turn description into something usable at the bedside and in the viva. That structure also makes it useful beyond the undergraduate examination: it serves as preparation for university examinations and for PG entrance tests, and provides a foundation for postgraduate students beginning in otorhinolaryngology before they move to the larger treatises. The multi colour production carries the clinical images that this subject depends on. This first edition runs to 460 pages in paperback. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.
