It is the collaborative effort of nearly 80 internationally recognized scientists, covering the structure and ultrastructure, biochemistry, physiology, pathophysiology, and immunology of human skin. More than 500 extraordinarily sharp illustrations consist of clinical photographs, light and electron micrographs, scanning EMs, direct immunoflourescence, xeroradiographs, and line drawings. The work is an essential reference for basic scientists involved in dermatological research and for clinicians who want to expand their knowledge of the scientific basis of dermatology.
