Eyelid Tumours 2nd Edition

This textbook is the product of my experience and knowledge, which, in great measure, is derived from those who taught and encouraged me. My parents, Dr. Lester Older and Gertrude Older encouraged me to study medicine. My mother deserves special recognition for reviewing the manuscript for the first edition. My brother, Dr. Robert Older, assisted me with many computer related topics.

Four men were instrumental in shaping my medical career. In Stanford Medical School, I benefited from the guidance of Dr. Lowell Rantz and Dr. Kenneth Vosti. During my fellowship year at the University of California in San Francisco, Dr. Crowell Beard and Dr. Marvin Quickert instilled in me the values and skills that would carry me through a career in oculoplastic surgery.

Photography for the second edition was done by my office assistants, Ms. Lori Gilmore, Ms. Lisa McLeod, Ms. Sue Ramsey and Ms. Wendy Shuford. Ms. Susan Commee deserves credit for assistance with the manuscript review and references.

I would like to thank Mr. Michael Manson, the publisher, for giving me the opportunity to write a second edition of this text. Ms. Jill Northcott was very helpful in the early phases of preparation. Mr. Paul Bennett, Ms. Clair Chaventré and Ms. Ruth Maxwell assisted me with all phases of the manuscript. Ms. Susan Tyler of Cactus Design and Illustration did an excellent job of creating accurate and representative drawings of the surgical procedures.
