Enhanced basic dermatologic information, such as general introductions to treatment, treatment options, and rashes, makes this an excellent guide for dermatologist and non-dermatologists, as well as obstetricians and gynecologists.

- Includes more than 460 illustrations that clarify the key features of diseases and provide a greater “true-life practice perspective for making accurate diagnoses.
