Now with more than 50 per cent new photos, expanded coverage of viral STDs, and updated treatment recommendations, the second edition of the "Color Atlas and Synopsis of Sexually Transmitted Diseases" is more useful than ever. It is the most practical source available for STD diagnosis and treatment, by one of the nation's premier experts in the field. Some 200 high-quality color photographs - the best of the author's extensive collection - guide you through STD diagnosis, management, and prevention strategies. With both etiologic and syndromic sections, the "Color Atlas" simplifies finding what you need, from guidance on recognizing atypical manifestations of herpes, to management of chlamydial infection, to the work-up of vaginal discharge.You can look inside for these important features: photographs for each condition, accompanied by an overview of epidemiology and etiology, guidelines on rapid diagnosis and definitive laboratory tests, treatment options, and case studies; succinct outline format; nearly 40 per cent new text, including new case studies and treatments; expanded coverage of viral infections, including, herpes, human papillomavirus infection, and HIV; guidance for at-risk populations; and, excellent patient education resource. A remarkable value, the second edition of the "Color Atlas" is an unbeatable clinical guide to confirm your next diagnosis and a quick source of up-to-date intelligence on tests and treatments. This second edition certainly has improved upon its predecessor. Its practical nature, clear photos, and comments following clinical cases provide practitioners with expert guidance as if the editor were physically present. Seldom does a book deliver what it promises; however, in this instance, it has and I feel it will become a standard for years. ----Weighted Numerical Score: 97 - 5 Stars!
