Linacre's Books, an imprint of Chronicle Companies, is honoured to publish the first edition of "Atlas of SkinImages," a new dermatology reference work by Drs. Anna Chacon, MD FAAD, Yvette Miller-Monthrope, and Jaggi Rao. Dr. Andrew Alexis provided the foreword. This essential resource supports diagnostic accuracy across all skin types and will play a significant role in ensuring #skinhealthforall. Atlas of SkinImages is a printed textbook inspired by www.skinimages.ca, the open-source database of dermatology disorders and diseases presented by patients of all skin tones and ethnicities. This project was undertaken with the encouragement of the Dermatology Industry Taskforce on Diversity, Inclusiveness & Equity, aka DiTiDE. (Learn more about DiTiDE at http://skinhealthforall.ca) SkinImages.ca was made possible by funding from the CereVe brand of L'Oréal Canada. The Atlas of SkinImages is supported by Bausch Health Companies Inc. On behalf of Linacre's Books, we could not be more proud of our role in partnering with the authors and benefactors of this reference. They each exemplify #purposedrivendermatology, commitment to patient care, and the values of a pluralistic, mutually supportive society. Copies may be ordered through https://lnkd.in/gMWfrUGg. Coming soon to a virtual bookstore or bricks-and-mortar location near you. #skinspectrumsummit #sss2025 #indigenousskinspectrumsummit
