Doodys Review January 2011 - Weighted Numerical Score: 100 - 5 Stars!
**Description**
This continues to be my all-time favorite, go-to book for a quick refresher on treatment and diagnostic tips as well as to confirm clinical findings by studying the gorgeous color photographs. Most of the major entities that one will encounter are beautifully described. The differential diagnosis is listed.
Treatment and prognosis are succinctly covered. Excellent tips on how to make the correct diagnosis are generously provided. The previous edition was published in 2005.
**Purpose**
It is designed to be a current and accessible reference in diagnosing and treating patients with the more common dermatologic disorders. The authors do a superb job of accomplishing this task.
**Audience**
The audience includes any medical professional who treats patients with skin diseases. This should be a mandatory purchase for medical students and dermatology residents. I recommend it be the first book you read on the subject. It provides an excellent basis for tackling the encyclopedic tomes on dermatology.
**Features**
One of the many strengths of this book is the clinical information shared by the talented authors who have a wealth of experience and knowledge. You will find helpful tidbits that are not in the giant references and they are presented in a most easy to absorb fashion. Tables in the appendix list common medications, tube sizes, and ingredients for quick reference. Topical corticosteroids are listed according to strength and chemical groups.
**Assessment**
This is one of the best color atlases of dermatology. It rivals the Fitzpatrick's Color Atlas and Synopsis of Clinical Dermatology, 6th edition, Wolff and Johnson (McGraw-Hill, 2009)). Reading this is like falling in love again (with dermatology)!
