Editorial Review:
A great medical dictionary--in a take-along size! Based on the "gold standard" of the medical community, the 26th Edition covers the must-know vocabulary, including 2800 new terms. All anatomy terms reflect the new Terminologia Anatomica and 500 new drug terms reflect the 2000 editions of the USP and PDR. It also provides full color illustrations and helpful charts and tables so all terminology is easy to understand!
