Review

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 01-APR-04, Volume 50, Issue 4, Victoria Lazareth, MSN, NP-C -- "Goodheart provides a user-friendly clinical guide to assist the primary care provider and dermatology novice in the identification of common skin disorders. The photographic clarity and detail, the bulleted keys to objective findings, and the cross-referencing to differential diagnoses comprise a structured approach to clinical assessment. The management of each disorder is clearly outlined, including therapeutic goals, points to remember, and helpful hints...I strongly recommend Goodheart's photoguide as a valuable clinical support to the nondermatologist."-Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology , Joseph Eastern, MD -- "If you're talking about Goodheart's Photoguide of Common Skin Disorders, you're gonna love it! I use it everyday to help me explain stuff to patients, and the residents who rotate through my office all say it's the best derm book they've ever seen for people at their training level. I'm ordering a second copy. Everybody should have at least one."-Joseph Eastern, MD

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book but BEWARE, Nov 30 2006
By Kimberly G. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Goodheart's Photoguide of Common Skin Disorders: Diagnosis and Management (Hardcover)
So the book itself is a great book. Perfect for what you need to know as a med student for derm. Very comprehensive and great pictures.

BUT, the book literally fell to pieces. Chunks of pages were falling out. This happened the first night we had to read it, so its not just from wear and tear. This happened to over half of the students of my class. DO NOT buy the book online. We contacted the manufacturer and they refunded the students that got the book from the bookstore but NOT from online. It might be a different case if you buy directly from amazon but do NOT use the marketplace, because you will be stuck with the book.
