Laryngology: Clinical Reference Guide is a portable reference guide that fills the void of an easy-to-read, concise, but comprehensive book encompassing all aspects of laryngology. Each chapter follows a uniform outline to facilitate quick review of a topic, and the comprehensive nature of each chapter provides depth. This clinically relevant resource is organized into ten sections that are broken down into their most important and fundamental parts by chapter, including the History of Laryngology; Embryology, Anatomy, and Physiology; Evaluation and Physical Examinations; Laryngologic Disorders; Neurolaryngology; Laryngologic Manifestations of Systemic Diseases; Pediatric Laryngology; Surgery; Swallowing Disorders; and Therapy. 
As a review book, it is ideal for residents and fellows in training and those preparing for board and in-service training examinations, as well as medical students looking for a "deeper dive" into the world of laryngology. However, it is also excellent for the practitioner who wants to get a succinct update on the latest, cutting-edge knowledge in all areas of laryngology. The information is authored by a collection of "who's who" in laryngology.
Formatted like the bestselling "Pasha" (Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery) pocket guide, this text provides a condensed amount of high-yield information with a multidisciplinary approach to bring a broad range of insight into complex clinical challenges.

Reviews

"The book opens with a very readable chapter on the history of laryngology, from Imhotep of Ancient Egypt, to the Sataloff of our own day. Basic Science chapters include a real pearl in “Patient History and Physical Examination”. I can now, with great authority, speak of such vocal fold abnormalities as decreased amplitude, glottic gap, mucosal wave abnormalities etc. How many readers knew that, during endoscopy you should get the patient to count 60-69 to detect abductor spastic dysphonia (SD) and 80-89 for adductor SD? As an otologist, I had long been baffled by the acronym (or maybe it is an initialism, as unpronounceable) of GRBAS, but can now even offer CAPE-V as an alternative. The text is even better on special investigations, whether stroboscopy, electromyography and all the armamentarium of the clinical voice laboratory. 
You would expect extensive coverage of trauma, tumours, inflammatory diseases and congenital abnormalities and will not be disappointed. What was particularly novel though was a collection of four chapters on Neurolaryngology, one on “Cough and the Unified Airway” and, especially thought provoking, “Care of the Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Patient”. I had always wondered why there was seemingly only a Type II Thyroplasty (for vocal cord paralysis), but have finally discovered the Type IV, a cricothyroid approximation, along with several others aiming to raise vocal pitch. Dysphagia, reflux and oesophageal dysmotilities, with the appropriate investigations, make up no fewer than 60 pages, despite the book title. Add to that a very easily understood chapters on pulmonary function tests and this proves a very comprehensive work indeed."

Liam M. Flood, FRCS, FRCSI, in Journal of Laryngology and Otology (August 2019)

"The editors and authors are well known in laryngology circles, especially Robert Sataloff.
It is divided into 10 sections with a total of 38 chapters covering all aspects of laryngology, from history and embryology to voice and swallow. Each chapter is of varying length but generally short enough to be concise whilst maintaining interest. [...] I particularly enjoyed reading the chapter on laryngotracheal trauma and premalignant lesions of the larynx.
There is a 30-page section on neurolaryngology. This short section is informative and gives a good summary of neurophysiology, dystonias and vocal fold paresis. It is a good starting point for a laryngologist in waiting and can be used as a foundation to build further knowledge.
Detailed surgical techniques are beyond the intended scope of this book and therefore not really described but it does have the basics e.g. laser physics, different laryngoscope types and injectable materials. In-depth operative techniques need to be acquired from elsewhere.
Swallowing disorders are covered towards the end of the book; this again is very concise and to the point and is enough for a generalist or a trainee but not a consultant with an interest in swallow. Overall, I would summarise this book by saying it a very useful review book/portable pocket guide. It is more aimed at trainees and definitely serves a purpose and fills a void that previously existed."
