About
"Asians comprise a diverse group of people from South Asia, which includes Pakistan, India, and Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines) and North Asia (Japan, Korea, and China). In these regions, the Fitzpatrick skin types III, IV, and V predominate." "Similar dermatoses involving the Asian skin often take on a slightly different clinical appearance from those affecting the Caucasian skin which is predominantly Fitzpatrick skin types I and II. This is mainly due to the inherent differences in melanin content and its distribution in the different races." "This comprehensive atlas of dermatology contains more than 1,000 high-quality clinical photographs on dermatoses affecting the Asian skin. Conditions unique to Asians are well illustrated in this atlas. This compilation will undoubtedly serve as a valuable reference atlas and an essential companion to the dermatology textbook to all dermatologists managing patients of Asian descent."--Jacket.
