Review Quotes

"The brand new 4-volume 10th edition of Rook's Textbook of Dermatology is a mammoth and monumental achievement. Comprehensive and beautifully illustrated, this textbook is a perfect edition to any medical library [...] expansive coverage of skin disease and quality of content."
Dirk M Elston
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology

"It has been 8 years since the last edition of Rook's Textbook of Dermatology was published. Considering how far the specialty of dermatology has advanced during this time, the new edition certainly keeps pace. Following the renaissance of targeted therapies, the management of inflammatory dermatology and cutaneous oncology, as well as many genodermatoses, has evolved rapidly, and this progress is reflected in the new edition"
