New Taber’s Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary. Great for every home, nursing students, medical transcription students and seasoned transcriptionists as a reference book. Online review: This dictionary has enough information to be useful for even the most learned medical professional and is still simple enough to use to be accessible to any mildly educated member of society. The dictionary is much more than simply a dictionary. Consisting of the vocabulary section and then some appendices, this 2270-page godsend is a wonderful compendium for definitions, examples, full-color diagrams, charts, diagnoses, and more. The preface to the dictionary actually lists all of the features of this cyclopedic dictionary, so I will regurgitate it here: 1. Vocabulary 2. Easy-to-Use Entry Format 3. Alphabetization 4. Eponyms (including biographies of those after whom things were named) 5. Definitions 6. Pronunciations 7. Singular/Plural Forms 8. Etymologies 9. Abbreviations 10. Encyclopedic Entries 11. Illustrations 12. Tables 13. Adjective Forms of Words 14. Cautionary Statements 15. Synonyms (Very helpful!) 16. Cross-References 17. Appendices (Basically all the stuff that doesn't fit well within the dictionary, like medical terminology prefixes, suffixes, and combining forms as well as lots of various classification schemes) 18. Nursing Diagnoses Appendix I DO OFFER COMBINED SHIPPING. Just wait for me to send you a "counter offer" to reflect the savings before making your payment. [Books > Self-Help]
