Color Atlas & Synopsis of Clinical Dermatology Editorial Review: "Should serve as a standard against which all future atlases will be measured."--New England Journal of Medicine, on a previous edition.

Retains its easy-to-use format that depicts each disease entity, then thoroughly describes the disorder with a brief overview: epidemiology and etiology; history; physical exam; differential diagnosis; laboratory findings; diagnosis; and management. Now features dozens of new and improved illustrations, current management strategies, an updated two-color design, and case reports where appropriate. Unsurpassed for its low price, extensive use of superb color illustrations, and ease of use by health care professionals at all levels.

Customer Reviews: Great pics! I really like this book. The descriptions and pictures are very helpful. Also includes differential diagnoses, course and prognosis, and management. A favorite in our ER.
Excellent Atlas As a medical student just entering clinic, I have found this book to the the perfect resource. Reccomended by a Dermatologist on faculty, it is easy to navigate, has tons of useful pictures and is small enough to carry to clinic in my backpack. I've already used it to make a diagnosis or two and know for sure that it has earned it's place on my bookshelf.
Excellent reference I was in search of a dermatological reference and found a great one. Clear descriptions of derm. conditions. Photos are exceptional. Good reference for new or experienced advanced nurse practitioner.
A book to have This is a must have book, well written coincised, straight to the point and good for medical students,residents and attendings interested in dermatology.
Quick reference Quick and assured reference for everyday use in dermatology clinic. However, does not substitute Fitzpatrick's 2 vol. compendium if you're looking to broaden your knowledge in the area.
