“This book contains a wealth of information on a subject that represents the most common dermatological condition seen in the typical podiatric physician’s office. … The book is written appropriately for clinicians, and amongst its audience will be, of course, podiatrists and dermatologists. However, those in family practice, internal medicine, as well as residents in each of those areas, too will find this a good read.” (Martin C. Yorath, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2017)

“Nazrul Hoque, Beverly Pecotte, and Mary McGehee have brought together an outstanding group of scholars who use demographic tools to examine public health patterns and trends in the United States and around the world. In doing so, the book will help its readers understand that health and longevity patterns and trends are tied to crucial political, economic, social, and demographic contexts unfolding in our world.” (Robert A. Hummer, Ph.D., Howard W. Odum Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)

This well-illustrated book is a comprehensive guide to the cutaneous clinical presentations of mycobacterial infections. The Mycobacterium genus includes over 170 species, nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) having been added to the obligate human pathogens such as M. tuberculosis and M. leprae. NTM are widely distributed in the environment with high isolation rates worldwide; the skin is a major target with variable clinical manifestations. A current  resurgence in tuberculosis is aggravated by the synergy with human immunodeficiency virus, the breakdown of health care systems, and the rise in multidrug-resistant disease, as the incidence of leprosy remains stable, at around 250,000 new cases annually, regardless of effective antibiotic therapy. Presentations  of various cutaneous infections caused by mycobacteria may be overlooked by clinicians owing the lack of familiarity with tuberculosis, leprosy, and the related  NTM clinical features. This handy guide will help  the dermatologist to spot the different clinical manifestations, make a prompt diagnosis, and apply effective treatment.
