Dermatology Pocket Picture Book

by Anthony Du Vivier

Dermatology Pocket Picture Book Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This book will be invaluable to GP's and to trainee and practising dermatologists. The text outlines a framework for the diagnosis of common skin disorders, all of which are extensively illustrated with pictures taken from many racial backgrounds. The vocabulary of dermatology and the differential diagnosis of diseases presenting acutely or insidiously in certain regions of the body are discussed. Each caption has been composed to explain and expand upon the photographs. Dermatology is a visual speciality and this atlas should enable anyone to recognise and treat skin conditions.

Review:

"The clarity, order and simplicity of the book are to be commended. As a quick reference in the pocket or in the practice library it would serve well. It is ideally pitched for the undrgeraduate to get a broad grasp of dermatology or for use in general practice." Reviewed Dermnet, 9th September 2002
