5 out of 5 stars Tabers cyclopedic Medical Dictionary   October 11, 2008
I could not believe the difference in the New tabers Dictionary, the last one I purchased was when I was in Nurses training. Iam very please with the product and am glad I went into Amazon.com looking for it. I didn't think there was a new edition. Thank You


5 out of 5 stars Very Detailed   October 3, 2008
So far my husband and I have found this book to be very helpful, we have only had it a month and are both taking medical terminology. He's taking the class for a biology degree, and I'm taking the class for massage therapy. Every time we have looked up a word, it has been there. If it needs a picture, there is one. It always gives you the root word with prefix and suffix separated and what language the word came from. The thumb index makes it much easier to find pages quickly than the books that don't have them. The definitions are easy to understand and are oftentimes more helpful than the definitions in either of our textbooks.

I was very pleased with the purchase of Tabers Cyclopedic. I never thought that this 8th edition would be so indebt with the information I was looking for.

It is one of the best medical dictionaries out there.
