This is a commemorative history booklet produced to mark the 20th anniversary of the founding of the International Society of Dermatopathology, written by W. Weyers, M.D. of the Center for Dermatopathology in Freiburg, Germany, and published by Ardor Scribendi. As a "richly illustrated history," the volume traces the origins and development of the Society over its first two decades, likely covering its founding members, key conferences, scientific contributions, and institutional milestones within the specialized field of dermatopathology - the subspecialty combining dermatology and pathology focused on microscopic diagnosis of skin disease.

Etat : Near Fine. 239 pp; illustrations. Original stiff wrappers. Near Fine. First Edition. A second edition was published in 2008 with Ackerman as sole author. OCLC does not record this first edition in 2007, but does record the second edition in 2008. Quoting Wikipedia about Ackerman, including this book: "Ackerman was a longtime critic of the argument that sun exposure should be avoided, stating that the risk of wrinkles or squamous cell carcinoma from exposure to the sun needs to be balanced against the advantages from exposure to ultraviolet radiation, a position he advocated in his book 'The Sun and the "Epidemic" of Melanoma: Myth on Myth' [first edition offered here]. The New York Times reported on Ackerman's return from a trip to Israel from which he returned deeply tanned having not used any sunscreen. Ackerman insisted that the causal connection between melanoma and sun exposure was not proven and that the sun should be avoided to prevent skin aging, but that it would be a mistake to assume that avoiding sunlight or using sunscreens would protect an individual from melanoma. The American Academy of Dermatology recognized Ackerman in 2004 with its Master Dermatologist Award which recognizes 'an Academy member who throughout the span of his or her career has made significant contributions to the specialty of dermatology' and to the leadership and education programs of the Academy.
