Product Description
Review
"This all-time favorite of mine continues to improve with each new edition. It is devoted to clinical practicality -- diagnosis and management of various skin diseases. The 11th edition has more color photographs than its predecessor and the information is current, concise, and well organized... Many of the tips provided to lead one to make the correct diagnosis will not be found in other books. The lack of repetition and the effort to avoid overwhelming readers with too much minutiae on research findings are great features. This is a most practical and valuable book for clinical dermatologists, regardless of level of training... It continues to be in my top ten picks for my dermatology library. I urge all dermatologists to own it." - Patricia Wong, MD, Doody's Review, 5 Stars
"The current editors, each a renowned clinician in his own right, have made this textbook even more valuable. The book is globally recognized as the leading mid-sized textbook in dermatology.Dermatologists and other physicians with an interest in dermatology will benefit, as will their patients, by having a copy of this book available for ready reference."
JAMA, July 13, 2011-Vol 306, No. 2

By Anthony A. Nuara "Tony" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Andrews' Diseases of the Skin: Clinical Dermatology - Expert Consult - Online and Print, 11e (Hardcover)
This is the standard issue book for Derm residents and clinic reference. This book maintains its format of stream of consciousness and is excellent for those who already have a foundation in Dermatology. This should not be your first derm textbook (buy big Fitz or Bolognia is that is what you need). Was lucky enough to come by an early copy and read it through for the inservice. I had hoped for corrections to some things in the last edition but the updates are not very thorough and some seemed like add on paragraphs (although I did not compare page to page with my old one). One that comes to mind is the reference to Ontak as its original numerical designation. Also noticed that the melanoma staging does not include mitotic rate for thin melanomas, which is now standard of care. Additional figures and surgery chapter are nice. The online access is nice for those who already have Bolognia and are used to expertconsult.com but it is by no means a substitute for having the actual book. A pdf or iPad version would be great.
