This Book is so good... (2010-06-02)
This book is so good, ... that someone stole it from me within the first week of me receiving it. As the other reviewers mentioned, this is an excellent derm book. The pictures are clear, concise, all the information you would need to make a diagnosis; including usual pattern of distribution, description, up-to-date treatment guidelines. Very concise! Well, need-less-to-say, I hope that who ever stole my book ends up using it to treat the 100's of skin diseases that I wish upon them and theirs! I hate thieves! So, I guess I'll just have to fork over the bucks to get another one, it's that good!!!

one of the best derm book (2008-08-12)
This is possibly one of the best derm book for student/resident. It's clear, concise, & well organize. Enjoy this book much better than Fitzpatrick. I especially love the appendix that include differential diagnoses per body region.
