Small Animal Dermatology: A Color Atlas and Therapeutic Guide by Linda Medleau and Keith A. Hnilica is well organized and easy-to-use reference. This book provides complete coverage of over 200 skin diseases with complete diagnostic and treatment options for each disorder. Along with hundreds of high-quality images, it provides the clinical features, top differentials, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis for each disorder. The book begins with a special chapter on differential diagnosis for the most common presenting signs in dermatologic diseases, followed by chapters covering a multitude of common and more rarely seen skin disorders.
The authors declared intent with the first edition was to create a colour atlas to compliment Muller & Kirk's Small Animal Dermatology. This volume, however, far exceeds this aspiration. The book provides an excellent diagnostic reference for all veterinarians dealing with the multitude of small animal skin cases presenting daily in the first opinion clinics. The authors' logical approach in providing an initial listing of differential diagnoses that should be considered from the presenting symptoms is accompanied by useful diagnostic algorithms for both canine and feline pruritus. The second chapter provides clear, well illustrated instructions for diagnostic techniques which are often under used by first opinion clinicians.
