5.0 out of 5 stars
A great first dermatology atlas!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Color Handbook of Skin Diseases of the Dog and Cat (Hardcover)
Ever since I graduated from vet school I have been looking for a good dermatology atlas. It seemed like the ones that had nice photos had just that, no text, and the ones that DID have text with each picture only told you about the disease but not what to do with it. This book has it all - for each disease, a definition, etiology and pathogenesis, clinical features, ddx, diagnostic tests and so important - management. Oh and nice colour photos. What I found weird at first was the way the book is laid out - not by dermatoses cause, as I would expect (like - parasites, allergies, systemic, etc) but by they way they appear - pruritic, nodular, ulcerative, endocrine, etc. But in the end it made sense.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent combination of pictures and text,
This review is from: A Color Handbook of Skin Diseases of the Dog and Cat (Hardcover)
Most books on Dermatology I know have good pictures OR good text. This one has good pictures AND good (although brief) text. Furthermore, the conditions are arranged by the predominant sign (pruritus, alopecia, inflammation, etc.) which facilitates greatly finding the disease you are dealing with. On top, the authors frequently give you a list of the rule-outs you should consider in each case. Diagnosis of dermatoses is still difficult but, without this book, it might be impossible. Iowa State Press managed again to put out a great book at a small pice. Get it!
