"Le infezioni fungine del piede è dunque una guida pratica e uno strumento di consultazione che anche il podologo più esperto dovrebbe leggere, e ogni studente dovrebbe avere vicino nel percorso formativo che va seguendo. Le infezioni fungine che colpiscono il piede, infatti, sono una delle patologie nelle quali più spesso si imbatte il podologo. Se la diagnosi non è difficile, per il trattamento sarà utile conoscere i successi degli ultimi anni che hanno riscosso i nuovi farmaci, come anche le nuove procedure di trattamento con gli antimicotici orali. Ed ogni tema è trattato non solo tenendo ben presente una linea costante di semplicità e chiarezza, ma anche calandosi, da podologi che vivono ogni giorno la professione, nelle esigenze del fare e del sapere che la professione impone. I capitoli sono solo due Le dermatomicosi del piede e Le onicomicosi del piede ma ciascuno di essi è sviluppato su vari temi che rendono del tutto esaustiva la trattazione. In definitiva un testo che l'AIP segnala e consiglia a quanti hanno veramente a cuore la propria professione." (Dalla Presentazione di M. Montesi).
