Postgraduates studying dermatology -- for example for the Royal College of Physicians postgraduate specialist certificate examination in the subject -- can face a frustrating lack of appropriate revision aids. Reference books can be too exhaustive or insufficiently up-to-date to be helpful, while undergraduate and introductory texts lack the necessary detail and depth. This book is specifically designed for postgraduate examinations. Providing much more than a cheat sheet' of questions and answers, its chapters are designed to be studied in sequence, each building on the last to develop a strong overall understanding. Common and introductory topics are briefly discussed and an understanding of basic dermatology is assumed, with MCQs (multiple choice questions) following the widespread best of five' format.
