The 4th edition is more concise. Though many pictures are shared the earlier edition has better pictures. I like the new edition okay but still prefer the 4th edition.

Excellent book for non-dermatologist like me. To the point in regard of treatment. Definitely recommend it for all Physician.

I am a nurse who recently started working at a dermatologist office and found this book to be an excellent reference guide. It is very thorough, easy to read, and has color pictures for every skin disorder imaginable.

This is a great book. It has a lot of pictures with detail. My office is internal medicine, but we use it almost everyday.

I was a bit wary of purchasing this book on Kindle with the negative review posted earlier. Yes, it may be miserable on the original b&w Kindle, but on the iPad, it's just what the doctor ordered. Excellent color photos are included, which easily enlarge in standard iPad fashion.

I'd strongly recommend this book for daily practice. I'm using it to study for my board recertification, but love the fact that I can easily have the great photos and text with me in daily practice in the emergency department.

Buy it. You won't be disappointed.

This text is required for my dermatology course in PA school and it was an investment well spent. The chapters are well organized, sections within chapters are easy to read, and the pictures are a great addition to the material presented in my class. I definitely plan to take this on rotations and into clinical practice with me!

I currently work as a nurse practitioner in a college health setting. This book has been an invaluable resource for looking up the various derm issues that students come in with. The entire office shares this book and it is a great asset to us. Clear pictures with clinical manifestations as well as treatment options. The best part is that it also lists the ICD-9 codes with each ailment which is a huge time saver for us. Definitely a great purchase!

Excellent reference especially for someone not especially proficient in dermatology - great pictures and decision tree for diagnosis & treatment

This text is perfect for a general derm text. All you really need in general practice.

The Fitzpatrick's Color Atlas helps you to easily identify lesions and treatments. It's a very helpful reference guide.
