Critics Review
Review of the previous edition:“This book presents hundreds of dermatoscopic color images of melanoma, nevi, and non-melanoma skin cancers. The objective is to teach readers how to recognize a skin malignancy by training the eye to scan for the major pertinent criteria. This is an essential skill for all dermatologists to master.” –Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice) Doody’s Review Service
