This magnificent workcovers the gamut of dermatopathologyNEJM. The most complete, in-depth coverage of the field available today in one source! It focuses particularly on etiology and pathogenesis, disease mechanisms and includes all of the appropriate recent genetic, molecular and basic science data. More than 5,400 illustrations provide diagnostic assistance of clinical variants to support clinicopathological correlation and differential diagnoses. The 3rd Edition has been completely reorganized and redesigned to better meet the diagnostic challenges faced in everyday practice. Histologic and diagnostic pitfalls are highlighted throughout and include detailed references for all relevant conditions.

This marvelous book in its present two-volume reincarnation is an outstanding contribution to the science of diagnostic dermatopathology. I have owned the previous edition, and together with Dr David Weedon's book, have used both these texts almost exclusively in my clinical practice. Although I have other texts (Levers, Murphy, Pinkus) I have tended to use the latter less or not at all for my routine work.
The present edition fortifies the text with the addition of new chapters on oral mucosal pathology and importantly, discusses the problematic area of the cutaneous manifestations of drug reactions. The photomicrographs and clinical images are outstanding and, in my opinion, are the best in its class. The book is pretty expensive, but if you had to buy only one book, then this is the one I would recommend

Ordinarily, an diagosis of skin disease shouid be established on both clinical and pathological findings. This book is very useful for me in point of aggregating both findings. In addition, It is easy for me, being poor in English, to read.
