Description
This is a thoroughly practical colour atlas designed for the practitioner. Organized by symptom or presenting sign, over 1,200 brilliantly reproduced colour photographs are accompanied by detailed legends that identify diagnostically significant features, and valuable tables of differential diagnoses. The authors present the full range on common and rare dermatoses seen in practice. OUTSTANDING FEATURES: The organization is probably this book's greatest asset. No other atlas is organized by type of dermatologic lesion or site on the body. This eliminates time-consuming research by the dermatologist, and practical usage in an office or clinic setting. Colour photographs of lesions have been reproduced to exacting standards to ensure true-to-life appearance. The authors highlight the evolutionary aspects of dermatologic disease.
