"""This is a valuable resource for dermatologists and non-dermatologists. The book refers readers to the main Dermatology reference by the same authors should they need to read about a particular topic in greater depth. This book is dense and concise. There are no wasted words."" ©Doody's Review Service, 2022, Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice) Doody's Score: 4 Stars!"
