Excerpt from Illustrated Skin Diseases: An Atlas and Text-Book With Special Reference to Modern Diagnosis and the Approved Methods of Treatment The pictures, both plate and text, have been selected with the view of exhibit ing, as far as possible, the ordinary phases of skin disease as met with in practice. Most of them are from photographs of his own patients made by the author. Those that are not are credited to the physicians from whom they came. A few are taken from foreign sources. The anatomical illustrations are from photomicrographs. In this second edition the section on Cosmetics of the Skin and Hair has been entirely rewritten and very greatly enlarged for the author believes that it is the neglect of this field which has permitted it to fall to so large an extent into im proper and non-medical hands. The number of prescriptions has been considerably increased; and the various changes which the improvement of our knowledge of the nature, pathology, and treatment of certain dermatoses render necessary have been made.
