    • Analyzes the pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis from two distinct fronts: inside out and outside in—an approach that is unique in the field.
    • Begins with an overview of the disease, then delves into both internal and external pathogenic factors, followed by the Clinician’s Corner, which offers practical recommendations for treatment.
    • Organizes therapeutic discussions by corresponding pathophysiology rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
    • Covers recently FDA-approved and emerging medications, as well as atopic comorbidities.
    • Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
