For dermatology residents and trainees, as well as those in clinical practice, Dermatology is the leading reference for understanding, diagnosing, and treating the full spectrum of skin disease―and is the key resource that residents rely on throughout their training and certification. Widely recognized for its easy-in, easy-out approach, this revised 5th Edition turns complex information into user-friendly visual content through the use of clear, templated chapters, digestible artwork, and easy-to-follow algorithms and tables. This two-volume masterwork provides complete, authoritative coverage of basic science, clinical practice of both adult and pediatric dermatology, dermatopathology, and dermatologic surgery―more than any other source, making it the gold standard reference in the field today.
