- Summary
- "Dermatology and Dermatological Therapy of Pigmented Skins fills a serious need by providing an exceptionally comprehensive text on the practice of dermatology as it applies to the variety of skins found in the U.S. population and the world. As the editor notes, it's not simply about dark skin versus light skin. Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and Native Americans all have different skin profiles and consequently require different treatment." "With each section written by an expert who is also a member of that race, this pioneering volume covers normal function and structure of ethnic skin, as well as manifestations of various diseases. Taking a holistic approach, it also discusses cultural and cosmetic issues specific to a population."--BOOK JACKET.
