Very well written. Very comprehensive with detailed explanations of everything medical. This is a book that I am constantly referring to as I work my way through medical textbooks and is an invaluable backup aid.
There are some great colour sections and the layout makes it easy to find what you want.

THE QUINTESSENTIAL MEDICAL DICTIONARY...
1 May 2006
Format: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.

You can't trust a book by it's cover...
9 Oct 2007
Format: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.

Kendra's Review
30 July 2007
Format: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.
