Fungous Diseases: A Clinico-Mycological Text

In reviewing this book from the standpoint of the general practitioner or of one whose chief interest is not in Dermatology, one is immediately impressed with the great usefulness of this concise and graphic presentation of the subject. As the authors declare, the work is intended primarily for students, and the effort has been to produce a volume which would cover the fundamentals of Dermatology and omit most of the descriptive and statistical matter which is of chief interest to the research worker and the specialist. Special emphasis is placed upon diagnosis and treatment. The many excellent illustrations add a great deal to the descriptions of the various lesions. As a means of ready reference to dermatological conditions, this book is recommended without hesitation to students and to the general practitioner of medicine. HERBERT THOMS.
