Also, the AAD publishes a very good dermatology coding newsletter called "Derm Coding Consult." (The AAPC publishes one, too, but I've never read it, so I can't vouch for it. And the Coding Institute publishes one that I'm not particularly impressed with, although it might be useful for beginners.)
We also subscribe to Inge Ellzey's DermCoder. It's an online tool that plugs in all the modifiers for you, as well as having really simple lookups for CCIs, global periods, etc. We find it indispensable.
I have never seen an actual dermatology coding book, though!
