From the reviews:
Histopathology of Blistering Diseases is one of my candidates for the medical book of the year. It combines superb technical qualities with excellent teaching, and addresses the most dramatic group of diseases encountered by dermatologists. My advice—glance through this book at a meeting or in the medical book store. Once you have it in your hands, you will buy it.
