Kimberly G. said that this medical book is a great book. Perfect for what you need to know as a medical student for dermatology. This medical book is Very comprehensive and great pictures.
BUT, the book literally fell to pieces. Chunks of pages were falling out. This happened the first night we had to read it, so its not just from wear and tear. This happened to over half of the medical students of Kimberly's class.
