Aus den Rezensionen: ! Der Altmeister der Dermatologie und selbst Autor vieler Beitrage zu dieser Erkrankung ! schrieb die Einleitung, lesenswert und ausgewogen. Gerard Tilles ! verfasste einen sehr gut recherchierten Beitrag zur Geschichte der Hidradenitis ! Den Herausgebern ist also zu dem Projekt zu gratulieren. ! Gut herausgestellt sind die Key points zu Beginn eines Kapitels, lehrreich und einpragsam. ! Die Autoren bringen einen kompletten Aubersichtsartikel zu lmmunitat ! Fazit: Lesenswert, kostengunstig, durchaus v. a. wegen der konkreten Therapievorgaben ! fur den in der dermatologischen Weiterbildung sich befindenden Mediziner geeignet. (Claus Oster-Schmidt, in: JDDG - Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2007, Vol. 5, Issue 2, S. 440 f.)
From the reviews: The book gives a good historical overview on HS emphasizing on the many confusing names the disease has been given since its first description more than a hundred years ago and the century long discussion of the involvement of apocrine glands in the pathology of the disease. ... In conclusion, this book is well structured, easy to read and are a great source of information ... . recommendable for all physicians with more than a superficial interest in HS. (Elisabeth Eiling, Archives of Dermatological research, Vol. 299, 2007)
