Product Description

Review
Taber's is the best. I've used it for over 20 years. It has been selected by our faculty as a required resource for our students --Gwena Pollard, RN, BC, BSN, Hannibal Public School of Practical Nursing, Hannibal, Missouri

Couldn't have finished nursing school without it. It's a Nurse's Bible --Marilyn Runnells, LVN, LVN Program, North Orange ROP, Anaheim, California

Taber's just keeps improving each edition - when I think you've done the best you can do, you come up with another spectacular edition --Brenda Phillips, RN, BSN, Southwest Technology Center, Altus, Oklahoma

5.0 out of 5 stars The best medical dictionary for practical use, 2 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I continue to use this book, after 5 years in private practice. It is fast, concise and still amazes me at its depth.

I've just recommended it to my brother who is begining his EMT training.

I find Taber's to be the most comprehensive and accurate medical reference and recommend it to the students in my court reporting course. We also use it in our court reporting office.
