    Summary: "It gives us great pleasure to present our book that addresses problems with respect to the teaching and learning of oral histology. The idea to write a book focussed on important details of oral histological features popped up around two years ago, when we felt there are many deficient areas in the present literature concerning the said topic. This book gives information about these features in a user-friendly format. It contains high-definition (HD) histological images of oral tissues with integrated text containing their introduction, key identifying histological features, and clinical significance. The textbook is intended for dental undergraduate and postgraduate students, license examination aspirants, and oral histology instructors. We strongly believe that the book will suit the needs of professionals in each of these disciplines. We would like to mention here that we do not wish the present book to be a substitution of more general textbooks in oral histology. It is our belief that a good dental practitioner not only needs strong clinical skills, but also a solid understanding of basic sciences. Consequently, our book should be considered as providing the first step of the ladder in learning oral histology. This book is aimed at encouraging students to pursue a more exhaustive appreciation of the subject. To counter technology needs and in-line with the digital age, a companion website for the book has also been developed"-- Provided by publisher.

    1 The use of atenolol, a cardioselective beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, in the management of hyperthyroidism has been studied by comparing it with propranolol. 2 In a double-blind cross-over trial, atenolol (50 mg), propranolol (40 mg) and placebo 4 times daily for 1 week were compared in twenty-one hyperthyroid patients by sequential analysis. 3. Patients generally preferred atenolol or propranolol to placebo but this preference only achieved significance with propranolol. 4 Judged by their effect on the symptoms and signs of hyperthyroidism, both atenolol and propranolol were significantly better than placebo, but no distinction could be made between the two active compounds. 5 Atenolol and propranolol reduced mean heart rate by 29.8 and 27.1% respectively compared with placebo. 6 Atenolol appeared almost equally effective to propranolol in the management of the peripheral manifestations of hyperthyroidism.
