Great for Patients AND Professionals, Sep 17 2004
By Chasing Thirty "Tara" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Handbook of Psoriasis (Paperback)
As a full time Phototherapist in a busy Dermatology practice, I find "The Handbook of Psoriasis; Second Edition", indispendable. After reading Dr. Camisa's book I find myself able to provide better patient care, through an increased insight into the disease that the majority of my patients suffer from. I also highly recommend this book to my patients as a tool through which they can better understand and control their conditon, as it is written in such a manner that both the professional and patient can gather valuable, useful information.

An excellent addition to any Dermatologists bookshelf, Oct 27 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Handbook of Psoriasis (Paperback)
The Handbook of Psoriasis would make an excellent addition to any Dermatologist's bookshelf. Concise and complete, this reference provides current and pertinent information on all aspects of psoriasis ranging from classification and genetics to pathology and treatment. The chapters pertaining to treatment are especially comprehensive and would definitely assist the clinician in the treatment of this often frustrating illness, regardless of their career level. I was very impressed by the discussion on the immunosuppressant and retinoid drugs. Nebulous topics in most texts, Camisa eloquently clarifies the most essential factors regarding the use of these drugs(critical information that will be valuable not only for psoriasis but other dermatological disease entities as well). A definite "keeper" of a book which I highly recommend.

A wonderful book, Jun 9 2000
By Food Fan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Handbook of Psoriasis (Paperback)
As a resident in dermatology, I can strongly recommend this book. It provides concise thorough chapters on many aspects psoriasis, including its different clinical manifestations. Perhaps of most use are the chapters on treatment which summarise very well how to use the oral immunosupressive medications, retinoids, tar, light and more. Highly recommended for 1st and 2nd years.
