The investigation and management of ear disease occupies a significant portion of a veterinary clinician's time. Otitis externa, in particular, is likely to be seen by a busy small animal clinician at least once a day. Chronic, and chronic recurrent, it is frustrating and costly to the owner and often painful for the animal. This book provides a comprehensive source of information on the relevant structure, function, medicine, and surgery of the ear, from Otodectes cynotis infection to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. The book details the salient points of diagnosis and treatment and includes more than 200 colour illustrations.

"As ear disease is so frequently a cause of suffering in our pets and also a cause of great frustration for both clients and vets, this book should be in every practice library. Its compact size means it will hopefully be regularly used in the consulting room and the lab."—D. G. Bentley in Veterinary Record"All topics are dealt with comprehensively and should help the clinician a great deal in dealing appropriately with all aspects of otitis externa… All in all, a nice addition to a practitioner’s library!"—Inge Geens, DVM, CertSAD, MRCVS, Veterinary Surgeon, Laurels Veterinary Centre, UK"Overall, this is a good reference to have on your shelf."—Sandra R. Merchant, DVM, DACVD, Louisiana State University, in Vet Med Today
