SUMMARY
An illustrated time-line, this volume features a range of historical plates such as 'Molluscum contagiosum', from Thomas Bateman's Delineations of Cutaneous Diseases, 1817, an 1869 painting of ichthyosis hystrix by Carl Heitzmann, and early experiments in UV therapy by Finsen and colleagues in 1903. The authors have selected individuals representative of each era, workers who dealt seriously with the dermatologic concerns of the day, or who through project the color and ambience of the period in which they lived. The volume includes examples of the books, journals, instruments, and devices that made up the annals and paraphernalia of the speciality as it evolved.Lawrence C. Parish is the author of 'Historical Atlas of Dermatology and Dermatologists', published 2002 under ISBN 9781842141007 and ISBN 1842141007.
