The book has been written in German by 146 dermatologists as well as Dia-Klinik authors from Ludwig-Maximillian-University and Department of Dermatology and Allergology in Munich. As stated in the Preface, this tradition of continuing education for German speaking dermatologists has been well known for 60 years now, starting with Professor Alfred Marchionini, Professor Otto Braun-Falco, Professor Gerd Plewig and now Professor Thomas Ruzicka. There was special atmosphere at the Congress, as reported by all the participants. Plenary and oral presentations, courses, lunch seminars, satellite seminars, special courses like Ultrasound and Laser Courses and breakfast seminars were all highly attractive and interesting.
