Established for 55 years as the preeminent dermatopathology text, Lever's Histopathology of the Skin is now in its Ninth Edition--thoroughly updated and now illustrated entirely in full color.

This edition contains more than 1,300 full-color illustrations, including photomicrographs and new clinical photographs of dermatologic conditions and reaction patterns.
