This book presents the most common skin diseases of children, which account for more than 90% of the presenting cases. In each chapter, the differential diagnostic possibilities are shown in a table where the most important distinguishing features are summarized. Treatment is presented in considerable detail, reflecting the current literature as well as the clinical experience in two large German pediatric dermatology clinics. The scientific names of all recommended medications are given so that the book can be used by readers around the globe, rather than just those with access to European medications. Tips are included for the treating physician on how to best tailor the various therapy regimens and anticipate the course of the disease. Recent advances in dermatologic therapy including tacrolimus, pimecrolimus, and imiquimod are included. The appendix contains detailed practical information on the choice of an appropriate vehicle, as well as on antibiotics, antihistamines, and topical corticosteroids.

This is the second edition of a book first published 15 years ago as "Dermatologic Drug Directory". The book was originally intended as a guide to the drugs required to treat skin diseases. However this new edition is far more of a pictorial aid to the diagnosis of common skin diseases. The first section of the book does still discuss Systemic Drugs, Topical Therapy, and the Side Effects of Drugs, but it then provides a large lavishly illustrated section on the Instant Diagnostic Criteria and Treatment of Common Skin Disorders. This book will be useful to students being introduced to dermatology for the first time, and also to practitioners who can refer to it in their day to day consultations.
