ABC of Dermatology 4th Edition (ABC Series) - Paul K. Buxton

Description

Dermatology is the branch of medicine dealing with the skin and its diseases, a unique specialty with both medical and surgical aspects. The name of this specialty originated in the form of the (semantically wrong) words dermologie (in French, 1764) and, a little later, dermatologia (in Latin, 1777). A dermatologist takes care of diseases, in the widest sense, and some cosmetic problems of the skin, scalp, hair, and nails. This is an introduction to dermatology that assumes a general understanding of medicine, but no specialist knowledge. The book provides the essential core of knowledge to which more detailed information can be added. It can be used for reference by general practitioners and doctors in other specialties. The discussion of common conditions before introducing more complex diseases makes it very suitable for teaching medical and nursing students.
