<p>"It would be helpful to have on the shelf of your nurse's office or in your personal collection. If you are new to dermatology and on your journey to becoming a specialist nurse, I would very much recommend this book. For those of you like me who have worked for many years in this exciting field you will be sure to find new information on the less familiar topics you come across in your clinical setting. This book lays the foundations to equip nurses to move closer towards the status of 'specialist nurse'." (<i>Dermatological Nursing</i>, Vol 18. No 4)</p> <p>"<i>Dermatology at a Glance</i> covers a complex scientific subject in an easily understandable way. It is clearly and concisely written with key points highlighted at the end of each chapter, including a valuable additional warning section indicating possible pitfalls to be aware of or avoid. There is a helpful list of reliable information sources for further study, and the history and examination sections provide practical advice." (<i>Clinical and Experimental Dermatology</i>)</p>
