Dermatology, the first book in the new Thieme Clinical Companions series,
presents the essential information on how to diagnose and treat the full range
of dermatologic diseases. Compiled by expert physicians, this pocket guide
describes the diagnostic approach and therapeutic options for a wide range of
skin diseases. More than 300 full-color illustrations, diagrams, checklists,
charts, and clinical tips illuminate all concepts and techniques described in
the text. Basic aspects of skin biology and disease pathophysiology are also
covered.
To aid quick reference and review, the book is organized into the following
color-coded sections:

• Introduction and Diagnosis: A concise overview of the
  biology and anatomy of the skin, followed by a step-by-step guide to the
  dermatologic evaluation.
  
• Dermatologic Diseases: Extensive coverage of skin and
  hair disorders, with illustrations and essential information for each,
  including pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostic approach, differential
  diagnosis, therapy, and more.
  
• Therapy: Review of the current information on
  establishing a treatment plan, including topical, systemic, and radiation
  therapy, as well as operative dermatology, wound healing, and emergency
  treatment.
  
• Useful Appendices: Common systemic medications and
  commonly used compounding recipes
  
• Dermatologic Differential Diagnosis: Comprehensive charts (with numerous cross-references) designed to help the reader recognize and fully understand the patient's signs and symptoms.

All dermatologists, residents, and trainees will benefit from keeping this
compact portable guide on hand in the clinical setting.
