I absolutely love this dictionary. It's easy to read the definitions and very well written. I use it constantly while I'm studying to look up certain words or diseases/disorders to help me understand topics better. I recommend this for anyone in a medical career.

Rating: - Best support you could ever buy!
I bought this Dictionary for my daughter who is studying Nursing and she just told me THANKS MOM because this book will lead me to a better way of understanding terms and subjets that with out it will be impossible.

This dictionary is like the "Mother of books" to everyone who will want to be more prepared for the professional nursing enviroment.

Thanks to Amazon too for having this type of tools available to anyone!

Rating: - Most imformative book I own.
I am a current nursing student and this book has proved to be extremely valuable, I find myself looking up 3 to 5 words per day. In 2 or 3 sentances you get a clear concept of a condition, enough to make an educated guess on an exam. The photographs are amazing. Buy this book.

Rating: - I LOVE THIS BOOK
I love dictionaries but I love this medical dictionary! It has been very helpful and a life saver for my studies. What can I really say though? It is a dictionary, just with medical words.
