Dermatology, 1987
Scope and Contents
"A History of the Department of Dermatology, University of Virginia", by Edward P. Cawley and William H. Kaufman. Published in 1987. Foreword by Peyton E. Weary, graduate of the University of Virginia School of Medicine Class of 1955, and former Chair of the Department of Dermatology. The book covers the period from 1902 to 1985. The first section largely focuses on the formation of the Department of Dermatology (originally known as the Department of Syphilology and Dermatology) and the department's growth under its first Chair: Dudley C. Smith, M.D., whose tenure lasted from 1924-1950. The second half of the book follows the redirection of the department under two Chairs: Edward Phillip Cawley, M.D., whose tenure lasted from 1950-1976, and Peyton E. Weary, M.D., whose tenure lasted from 1976-1993. Much of the book's contents relate to faculty biographies. Also included are lists of Dermatology Residents.
