This handy-sized volume combines the features of a colour atlas
with concise and authoritative structured summaries of the essential
features of all but the very rarest skin diseases. Some 450 clinical
colour photos and 25 line drawings are accompanied by text subdivided
into definition, clinical features, epidemiology, differential diagnosis,
investigations and special points. Every opportunity is taken to
illustrate variations in conditions that occur with age or racial
group. Text and photos are integrated throughout.
A
ready reference for the dermatologist and non-dermatologist alike,
this colour handbook also provides a short intensive course in dermatology
for the beginner, for whom a glossary of dermatological terms is
included, illustrated by line drawings. The author/editor combination
is supported by clinicians at the world-renowned St. John's Institute,
who provide material on their specialist topics.
