Representing a unique and important initiative in the study of cutaneous medicine, Women's Dermatology: From Infancy to Maturity takes you through all aspects of skin disorders as they affect women - from basic concepts and general topics to specific considerations, such as culture, menstrually-related conditions, and drug abuse. It is an authoritative clinical reference that describes both normal and pathologic skin of the female patient throughout the natural course of life. The editors have invited renowned contributors from around the world to develop chapters in their areas of expertise, written specifically from the point of view of gender variations. The result is an all-encompassing volume comprised of 52 chapters and over 300 full-color photographs. Women's Dermatology: From Infancy to Maturity is an invaluable clinical reference for all dermatologists, pediatricians specializing in cutaneous medicine, and all physicians concerned with the optimal care of their female patients.
