This collection of over 200 clinical casesa "e;comprising questions, top quality color photos and detailed explanatory answersa "e;covers most aspects of dermatology. The author emphasizes more common conditions, but also features some more unusual and challenging cases. The cases are presented randomly to reflect real life practice and are designed not only to test the ability of the reader but also to educate and inform. This important addition to the self-assessment color review series is of value to dermatologists in training, to hospital doctors in general medicine, to primary care physicians, to nurses, to medical students and to a wide range of practitioners in professions related to medicine.

In the last fifty years dramatic progress has been made in the under­ standing of skin and skin diseases. Although we are still someway off understanding the ultimate causes of such disorders as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and the congenital disorder of keratinization, we now have considerable information on the physiological disturbances in various diseases. This has permitted and encouraged a rational approach to treatment. The successful use of antimitotic agents, immunomodulators and retinoids may be cited as examples. A major reason for this im­ provement may be the fact that researchers accept models for the in­ vestigation of skin diseases. Increasing numbers of them have become available in the past years. So many have been described that it is doubtful whether anyone researcher is aware of all the other models described - even in his own field of interest. This book is a challenge for those involved in the study of skin and its disorders to use the sundry models of skin that have proven helpful. It would be impossible for this work to be all-embracing but it is hoped that the choice of models offered in this publication will be stimulating and helpful in the solution of knotty skin questions.
