Description
Written for the non-dermatologist, this book provides coverage of dermatologic problems that are most often seen by the doctor on-call or the primary care physician in an urgent care setting. Emphasis is placed on differential diagnosis and treatment of most skin disorders. Organized alphabetically with bulleted lists, the short, succinct format makes information easily accessible in a clear and uniform format. Additionally, a four-color photo appears on every page.

"The best aspect of this book are the quality of the color illustrations, as well as the concise presentation of the subject matter. The differential diagnosis section is excellent and is an important feature of patient care which is often omitted in other books. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service Doody's 20020802More details
