This concise textbook of dermatology is aimed at medical students and those preparing for the MRCP and MRCGP examinations. The information is presented in a highly accessible format, using double page spreads for each topic. Extensive use of colour for both clinical photographs and graphics makes for a superb appearance. For review for examination preparation, key point boxes are provided. In this third edition, extensive revision has been made to reflect changes in the understanding of dermatological conditions at a molecular level and the changes in clinical practice. In addition, the use of the internet for dermatological information by both doctors and patients is reviewed.
