MedicalScienceBooks.com Medical Book Review:
Treatment
of Skin Disease: Comprehensive Therapeutic Strategies, 3rd Edition
is a remarkably inclusive text. The book is extremely well
organized with numerous high quality full color photographs depicting
the various dermatological pathologies discussed.
Online access is also included with each book.
Once you
receive your book, simply use the unique activation code in the front
cover to access the full, searchable text online at expertconsult.com.
One
possible criticism of the text is a lack of photographic examples of
pathological variants. Due to time constraints in the clinical
environment, many readers may prefer to consult a reference with more
"atlas-like" photography along with treatment guidelines. However,
due to superb organization and clear examples of representative
conditions, practicing clinicians will have access to the information
they need on a day to day basis.
