Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

A Practical Manual of Diseases of the Skin is George H. Rohé's 1892 contribution to the Physicians' and Students' Ready-Reference Series, a line of compact clinical handbooks designed for quick consultation by practicing physicians and medical students alike. Assisted by J. Williams Lord of Johns Hopkins Hospital's skin dispensary, Rohé organizes the text as a comprehensive practical guide moving through simple inflammations of the skin (erysipelas, furuncle, anthrax, herpes simplex and zoster, dermatitis herpetiformis, psoriasis, exfoliative dermatitis, lichen, prurigo, pemphigus), cutaneous haemorrhages, hypertrophies of the skin (freckles, chloasma, warts, corns, cutaneous horns, ichthyosis, hypertrichosis, scleroderma, elephantiasis arabum), atrophies, and an extensive section on new formations of the skin - covering epithelioma, keloid, fibroma, xanthoma, sarcoma, lupus erythematosus and vulgaris, and various vascular and connective-tissue growths. The manual continues into neuroses of the skin (hyperaesthesia, pruritus) and parasitic skin diseases, including the tineas, making it a genuinely thorough single-volume reference for late 19th-century dermatological practice. This copy bears the ink stamp of the "Pennsylvania Library" on the title page, along with a contemporary pencil annotation correcting the author's middle name to "Henry" beside his initial on the title page - a small but interesting handwritten detail suggesting a knowledgeable prior owner or librarian familiar with Rohé's full name. The spine also carries an old paper shelf-label numbered "616," consistent with a library or institutional classification system, reinforcing the book's likely provenance as a working reference volume in a medical or public library collection. Condition & Binding: The book is bound in the publisher's original dark blue/navy cloth boards with blind-stamped decorative corner panels and gilt-ruled, gilt-lettered spine. The boards show light surface wear, mild fading, and a small area of the old paper spine label showing wear at the lower spine, but the binding remains tight and structurally sound with no cracking to the hinges. Internally, the text block shows some age-toning and a band of brownish discoloration/staining along the top edge of several leaves (visible as a darker band at the top margin of the contents pages), likely from past shelving conditions or light water exposure, though this does not appear to affect text legibility. Overall- good.
