About this title

Review:

"This all-time favorite of mine continues to improve with each new edition. It is devoted to clinical practicality -- diagnosis and management of various skin diseases. The 11th edition has more color photographs than its predecessor and the information is current, concise, and well organized... Many of the tips provided to lead one to make the correct diagnosis will not be found in other books. The lack of repetition and the effort to avoid overwhelming readers with too much minutiae on research findings are great features. This is a most practical and valuable book for clinical dermatologists, regardless of level of training... It continues to be in my top ten picks for my dermatology library. I urge all dermatologists to own it." - Patricia Wong, MD, Doody's Review, 5 Stars

"The current editors, each a renowned clinician in his own right, have made this textbook even more valuable. The book is globally recognized as the leading mid-sized textbook in dermatology...Dermatologists and other physicians with an interest in dermatology will benefit, as will their patients, by having a copy of this book available for ready reference."
