”
TLDR The document recommends all three dermatology books for a library, noting their detailed content but also suggesting improvements in clarity and consistency.
The document reviews three dermatological books, highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement. "Tissue Augmentation in Clinical Practice Procedures and Techniques" is commended for its detailed coverage of soft tissue augmentation, though it is suggested that future editions resolve author conflicts and include cost comparisons. "Diseases of the Hair and Scalp (Third Edition)" is recognized as an excellent reference for dermatologists, despite some structural and content issues in certain chapters. "The Pigmentary System -- Physiology and Pathophysiology" is appreciated for its comprehensive update on the pigmentary system but criticized for inconsistencies and repetition. All three books are recommended for a dermatology library, with the first two being particularly pertinent to topics of hair loss, alopecia, and hair growth.
