Perfect for medical students, dermatology first-year residents, dermatology nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and other primary care physicians, Lookingbill & Marks’ Principles of Dermatology is a concise, abundantly illustrated, everyday reference for dermatologic diagnosis and therapy. This text is a true primer: it assumes no prior knowledge and is intuitively organized by morphology (appearance) rather than etiology (cause). A reader favorite through six outstanding editions, this updated 7th Edition follows a consistent, templated approach with key points, clinical pearls, differential diagnosis, and tables of first- and second-line treatments—making it easy to read and understand. Superb clinical photographs, full-color histopathology images, and corresponding cross-sectional line diagrams provide an easy-to-understand framework for categorizing skin conditions.
    • Provides therapy options in highlighted boxes, additional photos of uncommon presentations at the end of each chapter, and algorithms showing classification of disease at the start of each chapter.
    • Incorporates case study multiple-choice questions into relevant chapters to reinforce learning and for easier self-assessment and review.
    • Includes more visual elements and a more diverse range of skin color patient images throughout.
    • Helps you arrive at an accurate differential diagnosis with numerous tables that rank skin diseases according to frequency of incidence and highlight clinical features.
    • Updates you on the latest therapies for the most common skin disorders that can be hard to treat, including acne, psoriasis, eczema, and new coverage of common drug eruptions.
    • Features evidence-based treatment tables to keep you up to date with fast-changing treatments in dermatology and guide you toward the best treatments for your patients.
    • Shares the experience and knowledge of new co-author Dr. L. Claire Hollins, who joins Drs. James G. Marks, Jr. and Jeffrey J. Miller to bring you reliable coverage of dermatology essentials.
