- Grading scales in dermatologic disease
- Pediatric dermatology
- Dermatology and systemic disease

With a central focus on practical action from an international cast of authors, Ethnic Dermatology: Principles and Practice gives you the clinical tools you need when skin color matters.

Reviews for Ethnic Dermatology: Principles and Practice
