Gender diversity as a corporate governance mechanism is high on the
agenda for regulators, firms, and researchers. Particularly, gender
board composition has received a great deal of attention in recent
years. The theoretical foundations of the benefits associated with
the inclusion of female directors on boards, how to measure gender
diversity in the boardroom, and its real impact on board decisions
and firm strategies remain hotly debated. Drawing on empirical
data, this book summarises the current situation regarding gender
board diversity and provides a concise overview of the most
important concerns about this topic. This will be a vital tool to
guide the future debate on gender diversity and corporate
governance for researchers and advanced students, as well as
regulators, policy makers and board members.

The majority of tropical diseases manifest themselves through the
skin, and while many can be diagnosed on physical examination,
dermatopathologic results are often of critical importance to the
diagnostic process. However, general dermatopathology texts lack
images of diseases endemic in the developing world; they also lack
clinical correlates linking the pathology to the clinical entity.
This is a problem, because greater movement between countries where
tropical diseases are prevalent and Europe, North America and other
developed nations makes it essential for physicians to be able to
recognize, diagnose and treat these diseases. Dermatopathology of
Tropical Diseases covers the pathology and clinical correlations of
the most important tropical diseases. Each entity is described
using brief text that summarises its epidemiology, pathogenesis and
clinical features. The diagnostic process is then described and
illustrated using both clinical and histopathologic images.
Wherever possible, different examples are shown of the same
disease, in order to illustrate as wide a variety of presentations
as possible. Extensively illustrated with almost 600 photographs,
Dermatopathology of Tropical Diseases is an invaluable resource for
dermatopathologists, pathologists and dermatologists based in the
developing world as well as those in developed countries who see
tropical diseases in returned travellers and immigrant populations.
Key features Includes chapters on all major tropical diseases, with
both clinical and histopathological images provided for each
entity, allowing the reader to correlate pathological
characteristics with the clinical presentation of each disease
