Synopsis

Beautifully illustrated and finely detailed, the Dermatological Atlas of Black Skin provides comprehensive coverage of cutaneous diseases in black people. The clinical needs of this large ethnic group must be addressed on an international level; to date, very few books have been devoted entirely to this subject. In addition to the skin conditions depicted throughout the book, the text has also been updated to include current demographics.The authors examine 32 diseases with clinical variations encountered in black skin with distinctive color changes. Each disease is fully illustrated, with full definitions, etiology, clinical perspective, differential diagnosis and relevant treatment options. This unique, informative publication will ensure that clinicians can recognize, diagnose and treat skin diseases accurately in black people. The Introduction provides background to the subject, which is enormously helpful as a reference guide.
