SELF-ASSESSMENT COLOUR REVIEWS IN MEDICINE: Each book covers a specialist area of medicine and the format enables the reader to consider a problem fully and then devise a solution.

This collection of over 200 clinical cases — comprising questions, top quality colour photos and detailed explanatory answers — covers most aspects of dermatology. The author emphasises 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 colour 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.
