Second edition of this important photography atlas of skin diseases. Hand-colored plates printed by Edward Bierstadt and hand-colored by Joesph Gaertner. Fox writes, The study of Skin Diseases without cases or colored plates is like the study of osteology without bones, or the study of geography without maps. However comprehensive or practical a text-book may be, its verbal descriptions cannot compare in value with a sight of the things described, or, what is the next best, its faithful representation. Known as the dean of dermatology , Fox was one of the founder of the American Dermatological Association. N° de ref. del artículo RAREA1888AKLZ
