For the World to Hear: A Biography of Howard P. House, M.D.

Sidney Hyman does a marvelous job of describing Dr. Howard House, Founder of the House Ear Institue. Having a close association with the House Family, I can attest to to the author's impeccable portrayal of this outstanding man and his life. The book was great background material for me with regard to the numerous accomplishments of all the House brothers and the formation of the legendary House Institute which has served so many hearing impaired people. A great tribute to a great man!

I'm not a medical student or medical professional but I highly recomment to read this book. Howard House is a genius with sense of humor. 5 stars!!!!

This book by Dr. House reviews the path of one of modern otology's great founders. It reveals much of the history of otology through the life of the subject of the book, Dr. Howard House. It of course starts with Dr. House's early years and chronicals his training at USC, the eastern U.S., and Germany in pre World War II times. All of the great founders of otology are mentioned with real insights into their personalities and contributions to the science. Virtually the entire history of stapedectomy is told. Truly a great book for anyone interested in the field of otology(such as myself) or an interesting review for those that practice the specialty.
