Summary: More on the skin than the eye Rating: 4
There are a lot of unusual diseases in this . At least, unusual to the ophthalmologist. In other words, the focus seems to be on dermatologic disorders that may have ocular findings rather than ophthalmologic disorders that may have integumentary findings. That is part of what makes this book great for ophthalmologists. The text is well written, but as it is with most books like this, the key features of adiseases are not emphasized as compared to a laundry list of findings. Also, little discussion exists on treatment. The chapter organization is good and the chapters are not overly long. The pictures, in general, are very good. However, there are a number ofdiseases in this "ATLAS" with no associated picture. And, the organization of the pictures is a little weird. But, overall, I do recommend this book for ophthalmologists interested in rare diseases or "systemic disease." This book complements the kanski book on systemic disease and the one by Weingeist
