Contact Dermatitis

The fourth edition is an up-dated coverage of every conceivable aspect of the modern-day management of contact dermatitis. Both irritant and allergic contact dermatitis are covered fully and clearly, special emphasis being given to immunolgical mechanisms, molecular aspects of sensitizers, atypical clinical forms, reactions to drugs, occupational and environmental aspects. For optimizing the diagnostic approach a wide scale of information is provided. The editors and authors are all leading practitioners in the field. Their expertise has thus enabled the compilation of a comprehensive, yet approachable, updated text, supplemented by a large number of full color illustrations and tables. Core messages highlight the most important information and help the reader gain better understanding of the subject and greater competence in everyday practice. For teaching purposes a CD-ROM is included providing virtually all clinical pictures and the most pertinent diagrams and tables.
