This clinical case book serves as a useful guide for dermatologists, internists, family practitioners, pediatricians, and anyone else charged with the care of infectious diseases of the skin of parasitic, fungal, bacterial, and viral origin. The case-based format distinguishes this work from a reference-style textbook, allowing readers to relate the presented cases to their own practice. Clinical Cases in Infections and Infestations of the Skin provides help and insight for clinicians in managing skin disease, with each chapter serving as a springboard for further pursuit and more extensive training. The reader will find useful information and tools to help patients and will enable readers to add to their current clinical regimens by becoming familiar with healing systems beyond medical dermatology. The book will enable those new to the field to develop a literacy and competence in the management of infectious dermatology. For the more experienced learner, it will assist in finding new ways to sharpen diagnostic and treatment acumens.

Dr Robert A. Norman is the series editor and co-author of the first book in the series, Clinical Cases in Geriatric Dermatology. He helped formulate the dermatology program for the Integrative Medicine fellows at the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine and provided a comprehensive lecture in Integrative Dermatology for the fellowship program. Dr William Eng is a pathologist who specializes in anatomic pathology, clinical pathology, dermatopathology, and dermatopathology and is currently based in Tampa, Florida.
