Reviews

The book provides a wealth of excellent photos and a brief outline of diagnostic, clinical, and therapeutic issues for common fungal infections. This is a well designed new edition of a guide published six years ago. It has the advantages of brevity and outstanding photographs. Doodys website ...the authors are to be congratulated on improving an already worthwhile text. This book is ideal for the non-expert and it more than fulfils the role for which it was designed.
