The opening chapter, on general principles, includes a classification with an algorithm and a problem-oriented algorithm. Subsequent chapters cover the entire gamut of disease entities--eczema; contact dermatitis; drug and toxic reactions; papulosquamous diseases; benign tumors; premalignant and malignant tumors; bacterial, viral, and fungal skin infections; infestations, parasites, and bites; developmental disorders; manifestations of internal disease; manifestations of circulatory disease; sweat and associated disorders; mechanical injuries; psychocutaneous disorders; nail disorders; and scar conditions.
