This is a good book, it has good info and pics, but is not very complete, you'll find yourself in need of other references very often.

I needed this book and was able to purchase it for a fraction of the cost. It was in great condition as the owner had said. No problems!

review of the book by fitzpatrick dermatology by Tarek Musslimani (israel) 3 Stars
June 18, 2009
As it says, it is a really an atlas rather than a textbook. As an atlas so I think it is good but the clinical synopsis is not well written. One cannot really learn from the discussion given in the text. The etiology of each disease in not discussed and if it is then it is not clear and is not well explained. It is relatively inexpensive so this is also an advantage but other than this there is no advantage over other books with respect to to the explanation in the text.

Classic Reference by Jane Reader (Albemarle, NC United States) 5 Stars

This is a classic reference with so many color photos, you will find yourself referring to it over and over again.

Dermatology Professor Review by M. Caccio (East Brunswick, NJ USA) 5 Stars

This book is unique and invaluable to teach medical students and residents. The images are clear and concise and the treatments are logically listed in order of importance. I highly recommend this book for family doctors, pediatricians and generalists. www.laser18.com
