Dermatology: An Illustrated Colour Text is the leading textbook for medical students, residents, dermatology trainees, specialist nurses and family practitioners needing concise, up-to-date information on recognising and treating skin conditions. Honed over multiple editions and packed full of high-quality images, the book is presented as a series of two page 'learning units' covering the essential aspects of clinical dermatology.
It offers concise, easy-to-read information, and comes with high-yield summaries, clear photos and diagrams. This eighth edition has been thoroughly updated to incorporate the latest understanding of dermatological conditions, treatment and technologies, as well as increased representation of conditions on a range of skin tones to reflect diverse patient populations encountered in clinical dermatology.
Large format, double-page spread layouts – visually appealing and easy to readText is concise and targeted to the needs of medical students, dermatology trainees, nurse specialists and general practitionersCovers basic molecular mechanisms of dermatological conditionsIncludes summaries of essential skin biology and associated basic sciences that underpin clinical practiceAdvice on established and emerging dermatological treatments, including dermatological emergenciesOver 400 colour photographs and illustrations of conditions students might not otherwise come acrossRepresents the cases that most commonly present in general practiceSummary boxes aid quick review and effective revision of key topics.
