"The Handbook of Skin Disease Management, authored by Zainab Jiyad and Carsten Flohr, is a much-needed reference guide to evidence-based treatment options for common skin conditions. It covers the management of 88 inflamatory, infectious, auto-immune and drug-induced conditions, as well as some lesions including malignancies. The recommendations are supported by an impressive list of expertise from 58 national and international dermatologists. Most conditions covered, and their management, are relevant to Primary and Community care, with treatment options available. It is a very practical book that bridges the gap between guidelines and what is realistically being used in every day practice." “What a refreshing change to see such a succinct book full of useful practical advice that can be used in the clinic. Zainab Jiyad and Carsten Flohr succeed in that difficult task of bridging the gap between evidence and practice.” “I wish I had such a useful handbook during my early career! Zainab Jiyad and Carsten Flohr have produced a great guide on the management of common skin diseases for dermatology trainees, consultants and GPs, packed with the latest evidence from guidelines and systematic reviews.”
