A Pinch of Salt
Well laid out and concise, information in bullet points makes it easier to digest as opposed to prose. HOWEVER, a few mistakes noted (and this is me not having read it cover-to-cover). For example, page 140 notes that the cricothyroid muscle is an extrinsic muscle when it is actually intrinsic. Going along with the same thought, several lines below, it states that the recurrent laryngeal nerve supplies all laryngeal intrisic muscles, which is of course not true because it does not supply the cricothyroid. I'd say read it with a pinch of salt, but actually, one should not really have to cross-check factual information published in a textbook. So, 2 stars.
