5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive dermatopathology reference; easy to read., October 20, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Textbook of Dermatopathology (Hardcover)

It took quite some time for me to choose a dermatopatholgy reference. Most of my fellow pathology residents have been using Lever's book, mainly because that's what we have available. I decided to go out on a limb and try this brand new book. I'm quite glad I did. This book is a pleasure to use. It is well written and beautifully illustrated. My only criticism is that the index and table of contents could be more helpful. By the way, my colleagues are also glad I purchased this book. I hardly get to see it anymore!

2.0 out of 5 stars Where's the clinical photos, October 12, 2007

By	Derm Doc "Dr. 9" (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this book because it was suggested by our program. After a couple months into the derm residency I wish I would have bought Mckee's dermpath book. Much easier to read, and has plenty of both histo and clinical photos. If you need help sleeping, forget the ambien, this will do the trick.
