The 14th Edition has been reorganized to enhance the flow of the material; expands coverage of patient management; offers many new illustrations, tables and clinical commentaries; streamlines some discussions (particularly for calibration of audiometers and clinical masking) to aid comprehension and retention of presented information; and much more.
