I bought this book a month ago,read it thoroughly and find it quite intersting and informative.It is different from the books usually written on dermatology.All questions asked are very common,informative and the one which are usually asked in the ward rounds and clinical meetings.
I recommend this book to all the dermatologists !

Another excellent secret series book that covers must of the essential dermatological facts that must be known by any health care provider. It includes lots of good quality photographs and interesting facts. Certainly, this book is worth the time and the money.

This review is from: Dermatology Secrets in Color: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access (Paperback)

This book is great if you are going into dermatology and you want to read it cover to cover. If you are a medical student rotating in dermatology but going into something else this book is not as good. During your rotation you will see a condition and then look it up in your handy book. This book is written to give overview on general concepts but is not as good if you want to know everything about one subject. Several times I have looked up a condition in the index only to find that it is either not in the book at all, or it is talked about in 5 different chapters without one central entry on the condition.
