"This is a useful tool for any healthcare provider interested in dermatology, whether a new resident just starting to study skin disease or a seasoned practitioner wishing to learn a new skill....What is especially helpful is the labeling of the dermoscopic photo, making it easier to learn the various criteria and structures. Moreover, each case has a diagnostic pearls section that adds much didactic value....What is most unique and valuable is that readers are not just passively reading about a subject, but are drawn to actively participate and make decisions. I wholeheartedly recommend this book (now app) for anyone interested in learning dermoscopy."--Doody's Review Service This interactive app is based on the full content of Dermoscopy: An Illustrated Self-Assessment Guide by McGraw-Hill.
