A Doody’s Core Title ESSENTIAL PURCHASE!
“This atlas uses high quality photographs and well written, brief synopses to cover an enormous amount of information about skin diseases in one book….This atlas combines over 900 color photographs with succinct descriptions of skin diseases and systemic diseases with skin manifestations to create the most useful single reference in the field. This is the one book I would recommend to a non-dermatologist learning or practicing medicine in any field in any country. For dermatologists, as well, it is useful as a quick and easy reference guide. 3 Stars.”–Doody’s Review Service

Rating: 1 / 5
book is in new condition as promised, but was packaged poorly which cause bending damage to the ouside of the pages.
Rating: 4 / 5
This is a great book, but the most useful thing about it is the full-colour pictures — which you can’t get on a Kindle.

I was a bit wary of purchasing this book on Kindle with the negative review posted earlier. Yes, it may be miserable on the original b&w Kindle, but on the iPad, it’s just what the doctor ordered. Excellent color photos are included, which easily enlarge in standard iPad fashion.
I’d strongly recommend this book for daily practice. I’m using it to study for my board recertification, but love the fact that I can easily have the great photos and text with me in daily practice in the emergency department.
Buy it. You won’t be disappointed.
