I love to read, as do many other women in this life, especially fiction. Turning the pages of a good novel is like chocolate for the mind, each page filled with sweet, creamy adventure. Wrap some music around the words and I'm hooked twice. The novel Can't Wait to Dance concerns three very different/alike women (one white, two black) and their complicated friendship with each other and their search for meaningful relationships with other people in their lives. The story is set against the lush, interesting, sparkling world of Denver, Colorado. Astra, a cherub-like blonde from Minnesota, feigns independence, but all the while is searching for some man to take care of her. Simi, a short, graceful dark woman, is bored with nude modeling and most men. She needs a change and a chance to find the one thing she wants to do with her life. Icey, an attractive fair-skinned tall thin woman, has a PR job and a hustler mortician boyfriend who are interfering with her desire to close her door and write romance novels. These three women experience joy, pain, pregnancy, rape and changing times and relationships, played out against the beat of the pulsating music that loudly runs through their lives, to reach a desired conclusion.

Often they have access to the Internet and other medical information and want to make informed choices along with their physician. Preventive Dermatology in Infectious Diseases will convey prevention and medication information to patients and thus help them reap the benefits of participating in their own health care and disease reduction.

This book discusses the exciting potential for dermatology to embrace developments to enhance the profession’s valuable pattern recognition, diagnostic, and treatment skills. Personalized medicine (PM) and genomics are easily accessible and enable the customization of healthcare using molecular analysis to influence medical decisions, practices, and therapies for the individual patient. The evolution of the skin, and the manner in which dermatological conditions are described and managed, reveals the need to consider many aspects on a personal level. New research data are based on the use of evolutionary medicine and genomics to highlight how we can become more successful at finding the most efficacious types of antibiotic or therapy and dosage for a particular disease or pathogen and build a competitive edge by prevention and risk management against invasive viruses, bacteria, or wrongly administered drugs. Asmore is understood about what grows on us and how it all interacts, along with how the introduction of new antibiotics, biologics, and other therapies affect our skin’s ecological balance, this book aims to create a heightened sense of the importance and offerings of ecological dermatology.
