About the Book

Second edition of this highly acclaimed text - well established both as an undergraduate student book and as useful reading for MRCP or MRCGP preparation. The book is a concise textbook of dermatology, presented in a highly accessible format using double page spreads for each topic - so the reader gets 'at-a-glance' understanding. Extensive use of colour, for both clinical photographs and graphics, makes for a superb appearance. For review and examination preparation, key point boxes are provided.Dermatology is a visual subject so the emphasis on visual presentation of information is particularly appropriate. The successful format and organisation of the first edition have been retained, while addressing the one criticism made, namely the need for more explicit information on therapy. Many of the clinical photographs are new and there are new double-page spreads on molecular genetics and the skin, HIV disease and immunodeficiency, the skin in old age, and occupation and the skin. Features: * Second edition of a highly successful text * Double page spreads present each topic in an accessible way * Illustrated in full colour throughout * Features learning tools such as key point boxes and graphics * Ideal for review and examination preparation * Improved coverage of drug treatment of dermatological conditions * Includes four new double-page spreads I wish books as good and as well illustrated as this had been around when I was a student ...this is without a doubt the best dermatology textbook I have ever seen" European Medical Journal "I like this book ...student-friendly ...very well planned ...ideal for both quick reference an revision ...interesting and informative, and gets a big thumbs up from me" St Mary's Hospital Gazette "
