Summary: Intricately shaped and amazingly sensitive, ears are the organs of hearing and balance. When something goes wrong with the ears - whether infection or cancer, eardrum perforation or hearing loss - our overall well-being is generally disturbed. Drs. Thomas J. Balkany and Kevin D. Brown, recognised 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 pressurised conditions of scuba diving and air travel affect the ears.
