This book provides a very expansive look at rosacea, complete with medical references and chapters on what treatments are availabale, and what those treatments are effective on. After reading this book, I have come to realize that many doctors, including dermatologist, have no idea how to really treat rosacea. If you have rosacea, and you want to fight it, you really need the information presented in this book. I can not recommend this book highly enough, it is simply a must have for every rosacea sufferer.

1.0 out of 5 stars VERY DISAPPOINTED - EXPENSIVE AND FAILS TO DELIVER ITS PROMISE, October 17, 2006

By 

Woody Green - See all my reviews

This review is from: Beating Rosacea: Vascular, Ocular & Acne Forms (Paperback)

Like many others, I was excited about receiving my copy of this book when it was first published, but unfortunately I was extremely disappointed because the book does not actually justify its title- Beating Rosacea. One cannot criticise the amount of data on rosacea that has been collected but little, if any, is from the author's own work. The layout is very confusing and without a specific index, locating individual items is difficult. For a person newly diagnosed with rosacea, I think the majority could be very confused about the best rosacea treatment to follow, plus parts of the book can leave some people feeling depressed rather than positive about their condition. Currently there is no known cure for this condition, but for some it can go into spontaneous remission. I was surprised that there is no mention of this in his book. Something which really concerned me was why the author felt the need to include his supposedly life and death rescue experience which has no connection at all with rosacea? No one else regards rosacea as a potentially fatal disease. The book is now very dated, with nothing on IPL, red light therapy, or any of the most recent advances in treatment, and there is a need for an expert such as a dermatologist to produce a better publication. Personally, I always recommend people, especially newcomers, to read one of the more concise, and certainly far cheaper, self-help books on rosacea which are on the market.

I have found this book very helpful indeed and many of my patients have found it invaluable as a reference text. Geoffrey Nase's contribution to the Acne Rosacea knowledge base is impressive. I ended up buying a second copy because my first one was well worn and frequently loaned out.
