Atlas of the Bullous Diseases

The bullous or blistering diseases of the skin are grouped together because of a common feature, 'the blister'. The disorders, although uncommon, tend to be more severe than most other dermatological conditions, and there is a relatively high associated morbidity and even mortality. There have been many exciting discoveries concerning the immunopathogenetic mechanisms and initating factors for these conditions, which have been made in other fields but of which Dermatologists need to be fully aware. This highly illustrated text from a world pioneer in research and treatment for some of these diseases will be of great value in setting out the criteria for future diagnosis and management.Fry, Lionel is the author of 'Atlas of the Bullous Diseases ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780415383387 and ISBN 0415383382.
