The new second edition of the Handbook of Psoriasis remains an
easy-to-read but detailed text on a common skin disease which
affects 2% of the world's population. The text is designed as a
reference for both the specialist and the primary care physician
and can be read cover-to-cover in a week. Each chapter stands alone
as a reference to a specific topic but is clearly cross-referenced
to offer a more detailed perspective.
This new edition runs the full gamut from pathogenesis to clinical variants of psoriasis to individual treatments with emphasis on standard protocols. Each chapter has been carefully updated to reflect developments in the last five years and new chapters cover such topics as childhood psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and biologic immunotherapy.
