Taber's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary:
This is a great reference for the Medical Terminology. It breaks things down so that the average person can really grasp the concept. Plus the illustrations in the book are FANTASTIC! This was not available on my college campus and I ordered this through Amazon and got it quickly to my front door. I highly recommend this book for the Medical Terminology or just for curiosity in the medical field.
I bought this for my daughter to use with amedical course she is taking . She finds it a great help with her lessons:
Bought for my daughter to use for a medical class she is taking and she said it has been a tremendous help.
Medical Books--Margie:
This product is very helpful for me. I can use this book while attending the AIC career institute.
Does not run from PC (only with CD): this is nonsense:
Taber's dictionary (CD-ROM) does not run from your PC, you must insert the CD-ROM. In addition, the support email address does not answer your questions. Not recommendable.
