About this book

Dermatologists are being asked to understand the pathophysiology of a number of immune-mediated skin diseases. In addition, a number of new products have appeared on the market during the past decade which requires an understanding of the mechanisms of action of these drugs. Dermatologists, however, have no easily understood book to which they can refer to regarding the disease or the drug.

Reviews

“New technological advances, new information in the field of cellular immunity and immunopharmacology in relation to skin diseases are reviewed in 4 large sections. … For teaching and practicing dermatologists and immunologists.” (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol. 8 (2), December, 2010)
