Skin disorders are arranged partly according to which level of the skin is predominantly involved, and there are separate chapters on dermatological aspects of internal medicine, disorders of melanocytes, skin tumors, and infectious diseases, including Kaposi's sarcoma. Includes some 800 state-of-the-art color photographs. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
