This title reviews the differential diagnoses, as well as outlining a practical and comprehensive management approach. It should help healthcare professionals to discuss treatment options with their patients, and also to educate sufferers and alleviate their concerns about this lifelong condition.

Though rarely life threatening, psoriasis is a common and, at its worst, tormenting disease that has a major impact on a patient's lifestyle and relationships. Progress in understanding the causes and mechanisms underlying psoriasis, together with the move towards increased community-based care, means that clinical practice is continually changing. Correct diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis can be problematic, and this book provides a thorough, practical account of the clinical presentations, differential diagnosis and range of modern therapies available. It should be an essential resource for anyone who manages psoriasis in the primary care setting.
