Designed for quick reference, this pocket-sized book provides step-by-step guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of problems commonly seen in the emergency room, clinic, or office. Specific topics of interest include maxillofacial trauma, temporomandibular joint problems, diseases of the maxillary sinus, and facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The appendix provides a head and neck surgery study outline and suggestions for additional reading.

The successful basic format of this text, which presents an approach to diagnosis and treatment based on clinical signs and symptoms rather than being systems-oriented, remains unchanged. However, there has been considerable revision and updating in this fourth edition. Significant changes have occurred in the design of the emergency drug and equipment kit, as well as in the chapters on airway obstruction, cerebromuscular accident, seizure disorders, drug-related emergencies, chest pain, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. As in the past, prevention of emergencies, as well as their treatment, is emphasized.

Craniomandibular Muscles: Their Role in Function and Form. Miller AJ. Boca Raton, FL, CRC Press, 1991, 277 pages, illustrated. This book contains current information on the cellular, anatomic, histochemical, physiologic, and pathologic aspects of the craniomandibular musculature. The material is presented in detailed fashion, with extensive references to the research literature. Contemporary Implant Dentistry. Misch CE (ed), with 16 contributors. St Louis, MO, Mosby, 1993, 779 pages, illustrated. This book is unique in that it is not based on a single implant system. Instead, it uses knowledge of biomaterials, biomechanics, and anatomy as a means of rendering specific clinical decisions within the concepts of multimodal surgery and prosthodontics. The first section concentrates on the diagnosis and treatment of the partially and completely edentulous jaw. The second section provides the scientific foundation for oral implantology. The third section presents the surgical aspects, and the last addresses the restorative aspects of implant treatment. Whenever there are choices of treatment, the reasons for the particular decision are addressed. Aesthetic Plastic Surgery: Rhinoplasty. Daniel RK (ed), with 39 contributors. Boston, MA, Little, Brown and Co, 1993, 883 pages, illustrated, $395.00. The 35 chapters in this text are divided into sections dealing with fundamental principles of rhinoplasty, diagnosis and treatment planning, the components of rhinoplasty, open and closed techniques, functional aspects of nasal surgery, special operations, and secondary and salvage procedures. Each chapter is authored by a surgeon(s) experienced in the field. The book is extensively illustrated with clinical photographs and diagrams, which makes the various procedures easier to understand. Atlas of Head and Neck Pathology. Wenig BM. Philadelphia, PA. Saunders, 1993,412 pages, color illustrated. This atlas is organized into five major sections according to anatomic region. Each section describes the anatomy and histology of the region and presents a classification of the lesions occurring in it. This is followed by a description of the specific nonneoplastic lesions, and the benign and malignant neoplasms. Each entity is defined, its clinical, radiographic, and pathologic features are described, and the differential diagnosis, treatment, and clinical behavior are discussed. The numerous clinical, radiographic, and photomicrographic illustrations add to an understanding of the essential pathologic features of each condition.

Principles of Oral Diagnosis. Coleman GC, Nelson JF (eds), with 4 contributors, St Louis, MO, Mosby Year Book, 1993, 509 pages, illustrated, paperback. This textbook is designed to provide dental students with the basic information needed in the clinical diagnostic process. Part 1 explains the techniques of collecting diagnostic information, part II addresses the process of evaluating and accessing this information, and part III is concerned with the differential diagnosis of the various nondental conditions that affect the oral tissues and associated structures. The goal throughout the book is to promote an understanding of the decision-making process rather than to specifically address all conceivable diagnostic problems. Manual of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (ed 2). Donoff RB (ed), with 11 contributors. St Louis, MO, Mosby Year Book, 1992, 384 pages, 35 illustrations, paperback.

These include dentoalveolar surgery, preprosthetic surgery, orofacial pain and temporomandibular disorders, orthognathic and reconstructive surgery, salivary gland disease, facial trauma, odontogenic infections, oral and oropharyngeal cancer, and cysts and tumors. Updating and revision have been done in those areas in which changes in management have occurred since the last edition. Atlas of Diseases of the Oral Mucosa (ed 5). Pindborg JJ. Philadelphia, PA, Saunders, 1992, 400 pages, 325 color illustrations, $125.00. In this fifth edition, the text has been thoroughly revised and updated, and 36 new diseases have been added. Old references have been deleted and replaced with 290 new references.
