The authors have revised the entire text for the new Second Edition, added twenty-one new sections and one hundred and thirty-one new color photos. The result is a Handbook that is practical, extensive and up-to-date in its content, beautifully illustrated and designed. The strengths of the First Edition have also been preserved. The book has a problem-oriented approach and it is arranged in twelve chapters covering dermatoses classified by their principal presenting sign. The text is concise and systematically structured covering definition, etiology & pathogenesis, clinical features, differential diagnoses, diagnostic tests and management. The design is clear and user-friendly with one condition per page or spread of pages. Fully referenced throughout.
