5.0 out of 5 stars THE QUINTESSENTIAL MEDICAL DICTIONARY..., May 1 2006

By Lawyeraau - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Stedman's Medical Dictionary (Hardcover)

This is a comprehensive, medical dictionary that is well organized and cross-referenced. Its use is made more interesting by the inclusion of etymologies. It is not, however, for doctors only. This veritable treasure trove of information is also a boon to lawyers. All who use it, however, should read the user's guide that is included with the book, in order to maximize its value.

3.0 out of 5 stars You can't trust a book by it's cover..., Oct 9 2007

By J. Paxton "Dr. J. Paxton, D.C." - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Stedman's Medical Dictionary (Hardcover)

Good dictionary. However, there are better ones (particularly Tabers). I have less physically attractive medical dictionaries with no color and a boring cover that seem to have the definitions I am looking for when Stedman's doesn't. Adequate dictionary but perhaps Taber's in a better value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kendra's Review, July 30 2007

By Kendra J. Colson - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Stedman's Medical Dictionary (Hardcover)

This is an excellent book. The book is a good source for medical terms and their meanings. There are also nice color illustrations as well. The book also contained a CD-ROM which included a spellchecker and additional images. I highly recommend this book if you are planning to take any medical courses.
