Containing a wealth of updated basic information and high quality of  iconographic material, Dermatopathology can assist the microscopists in a practical way to approach and solve the diagnostic problems they may face in the field. At a time when esoteric clinical entities and analytic techni­ques come and go, there is a need for a solid, updated, down to earth and "bench oriented" text in the field of dermopathology. This text provides a handbook which may be more helpful than an encyclopedic, "board orien­ted" textbook. The senior author of this book has been successfully working for over thirty years in his capacity as director of a private dermatopathology laboratory. His experience and knowledge of the subject is reflected in this well-structured and clearly-written text.
