This is the indispensable solution to those problematic eponyms, some of the hardest medical terminology for any healthcare professional to absorb and recall. Typically an eponym, such as Cronkite-Canada Syndrome, gives no indication of what the syndrome is or who the people behind it are. With this one reliable, efficient resource, a healthcare professional can obtain the complete meaning of more than 1,000 dermatologic eponyms and use them precisely every time. Other features of this book include capsule summaries of the eponymous terms, concise biographic information for each entry, black-and-white photographs, a useful 16-page insert of full-color clinical illustrations, and more.
