Recommended reading
Tinnitus: A Multidisciplinary Approach
The concept for this book grew out of discussions between the authors while lecturing at ETC and, in some ways, can be regarded as the textbook of the course. We thoroughly recommend it (well, we would!). If you wish to purchase a copy we suggest buying it from Amazon through the Shop and Fund Raise section of the British Tinnitus Association website: the cost is identical to Amazon's normal price and the BTA receive a donation from Amazon.
