Authors/Editors: Robert L. Rietschel and Joseph F. Fowler (building on the foundational work of Dr. Alexander A. Fisher). Publisher: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (Philadelphia, PA). ISBN: 0-7817-2252-7 / 9780781722520. Overview and Contents. Focus: Serves as an essential resource for dermatologists and clinicians diagnosing and treating allergic and irritant contact dermatitis. Coverage: Includes extensive surveys of common and unusual allergens (such as latex and gold), detailed breakdowns of aquatic dermatoses, and practical patient education instructions. Format: Follows the traditional, accessible style established by Dr. Fisher, featuring structured summaries, practical tables, and detailed appendices on exposure and cross-reactions." From the JAMA website: "Since its introduction in 1967 with 324 pages, Alexander A. Fisher's Contact Dermatitis has been the one essential text for American dermatologists who see patients with contact dermatitis. Now in its fifth edition with 1117 pages, and written for the second time by Robert L. Rietschel and Joseph F. Fowler, it still is. Dr Fisher wrote the first 2 editions (1967 and 1973) himself. In the third edition he invited coauthors, and although the book doubled in size, it maintained its signature: boxed summary statements on most pages, numerous tables, lots of folksy anecdotes, scads of practical information, an accessible style, no chemical formulas to speak of, and no pictures (the ones in the first and second editions were not good).". Fifth Edition, First Printing. Oversize Hardcover. Very Good - Fine condition/No dust jacket, as issued. Illus. by NOT a library discard. x, 862 pages. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.
