by Carolyn Charman (Author), Sandra Lawton (Author)
The incidence of atopic eczema - that is eczema associated with allergy and often accompanied by asthma - has increased three-fold in the last twenty years, with 20 per cent of children and one in twelve adults in the UK affected. Here the authors, expert in their field, present the latest research in what causes eczema, and why there has been such a dramatic recent rise in its incidence. In a book supported by the National Eczema Society, they offer a comprehensive overview of orthodox and complementary treatment options. They also advise on how best to manage eczema day to day.
