Andrews' Diseases of the Skin Clinical Dermatology 10/e

Description
One of the premier clinical dermatology references since 1930, this
classic text covers clinical presentation and therapy for a full
range of common and rare skin diseases. Its concise, clinically
focused, user-friendly approach has made it a favorite through nine
best-selling editions. The authors, all well-respected clinicians,
balance evidence-based treatment guidelines with valuable anecdotal
advice validated by many years of clinical experience. Now appearing
in full color for the first time, over 1,500 brand-new photographs
depict diseases exactly the way they present in real life. And, a
new, consistent organization makes information even easier to find
than ever before.
