Request a sales quoteThrough thirteen superb editions, Andrews’ Diseases of the Skin has remained the reference of choice for core information in dermatology for residency through clinical practice. The fully revised 14th Edition of this award-winning title continues the tradition of excellence with new tools and strategies for diagnosis and treatment, new entities and newly recognized diseases, increased coverage of skin of color, new videos, and more. It’s the reference you’ll turn to again and again when faced with a clinical conundrum or therapeutically challenging skin disease.
- Utilizes a concise, clinically focused, user-friendly format that clearly covers the full range of common and rare skin diseases. The small team author approach provides consistency and clearly conveys the authors’ first-hand experience.
- Features expanded coverage of skin of color—now 46% of all images—including distinct distribution or presentations, how to recognize disease states, and how treatment responses may differ.
- Works in tandem with the companion Andrews’ Diseases of the Skin Clinical Atlas, 2nd Edition, which contains over 3,000 images—one-third of which are skin of color images.
- Offers outstanding visual support with more than 1,500 illustrations—more than one-third are of skin of color, and more tables and figures to help compare genetic syndromes.
- Provides access to more than 20 videos online, depicting venous lake treatment using long-pulsed Nd: YAG laser, chemical peels, Q-switched laser tattoo removal, ED&C (electrodesiccation and curettage), nerve block, and more.
- Includes up-to-date coverage of monoclonal antibodies; new cosmetic treatment modalities; new tools in the diagnosis and treatment of lymphoma; new staging, diagnostic modalities, and treatment for melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers; and new treatment paradigms for hair disorders.
- Keeps you current with newly defined genetic syndromes, environmental changes and alterations in infectious disease states and heat- and cold-related conditions; new contact allergens; new devices such as the 1726 nm laser for acne intervention; and new molecular investigative techniques.
- Covers new biologics for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, itch and hidradenitis suppurativa, and JAK inhibitors for alopecia area and vitiligo, with decision grids to help choose the appropriate drug for each patient.
- An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.

William D. James
After graduating from West Point with a degree in engineering, and Indiana University with an MD, Dr. James trained in dermatology with an icon of the day, Richard Odom. Dr. Odom was the best of a long line of wonderful clinician-educators in military medicine and has remained a model for Dr. James as he has maintained an interest in all aspects of medical dermatology.
In 1987, just 6 years after residency, Dr. James was named the Chief of Dermatology at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. After 8 years at the helm, he moved into a position at a grand institution, the University of Pennsylvania, so that he could mostly teach, care for patients and write.
Among his nearly 300 publications are many books, the most significant being Andrews’ Diseases of the Skin (co-authorship of four editions), the Emedicine Dermatology text (founding editor) and the Military Medicine Textbook of Dermatology (editor).
He enjoys the beach, exercising, reading and any activity with family and friends.
