From the PREFACE: "The present volumes represent the fourth English edition of the well known Jacobi-Pringle 'Atlas of Dermochromes.' The chromolithographs are mostly taken from wax models in the Breslau Clinic. A large number of new plates are now included which have been added by Dr. Karl Zieler, and are used by him in his valuable textbook. The new text is not a translation, but is an original contribution, the descriptive matter being limited to the essentials necessary for diagnosis and treatment."
