This is a comprehensive and well-illustrated review of dermatology for students and primary care providers. The book starts with fundamentals of dermatology (structure of the skin, lab procedures, dermatologic therapies, cutaneous surgery for the generalist, immunology/ allergies, and cosmetic dermatology for the generalist), then continues with inflammatory skin diseases, infectious diseases, tumors, and diseases affecting the hair, nails, and mucous membranes. The last chapter focuses on skin diseases in specific populations (pediatric, geriatric, pregnancy), tropical diseases, sports medicine, as well as cutaneous manifestation in diseases of other organs and systems, pigmentary dermatoses, and skin reactions to UV radiation. The book provides about 2 pages of print and online resources for further information. The index has small color pictures of common skin conditions, so if the picture was all one needed, it's right there.
