Comprehensive Approach to Infections in Dermatology is a guide to all types of skin infection, with detailed information on epidemiology, presentation, diagnosis and management.

The book provides a step-by-step approach to bedside diagnostic procedures, with key points highlighted throughout. 400 full colour clinical photographs illustrate the methods covered, and data, graphics and evidence-based therapeutic guidelines are presented in tables for ease of reference.
