From the reviews: "This book takes a novel approach to systemic sclerosis, using case studies to highlight many different clinical findings in scleroderma. The cases are practical and make the information from each chapter more memorable. ... it is clear that this book is most appropriate for rheumatologists, from fellow to expert clinician. The authors of each chapter present their information in a knowledgeable presentation that instills confidence in their explanations and recommendations. ... Overall, the case format makes this book more enjoyable to read."--- (Michael L. Sams, Doody's Review Service, November, 2011)
