Book Description
Excerpt from Diseases of the Skin: A Manual for Practitioners and Students The exhaustion of a large edition in less than nine months has not permitted sufficient time to elapse to render necessary any extensive alterations in the plan of this work. At the same time, in deference to hints from friendly critics, it will be found to be strengthened in various particulars. Two new chapters appear, one dealing with the Hygiene of the Skin, the other with Epithelioma. Pemphigus is now treated as a bullous form of Exfoliative Dermatitis. The question of the contagiousness of Alopecia Areata, and that of the influence of the exanthemata on Ichthyosis, is alluded to; while the treatment of Psoriasis by anthrarobin, of Lupus by lactic, of Epithelioma by chromic acid, is detailed.
