Summary: The most useful dictionary in ur office
Comment: I have been using this great dictionary since I joined medical school. Even now as a doctor, I still use it when I'm stuck with a meaning of a medical word. Features include:
- Numerous colored illustrations including ADAM Anatomical Art, new diagnostic plates e.g. imaging and clinical and microscopic plates.
- Common medical abbreviations.
- Highly organized vocabularies.
- Highly organized entries and cross-references.
- Special reference to medical eponyms.
- Shows the difference between British and American spellings.
- Pronunciation key.
- Easy & simple Wordfinder.
- Genus Finder.
- A-Z vocabularies.
- Origins of the medical words e.g. Latin, Greek etc. which attracts me for the most ! Learning the origins of the medical words can be a boon to learning medical language. It makes remembering medical terms easier.
- Appendices including: Table of elements & their atomic weights, Comparative temperature scales, Temperature equivalents, Weights & measures, Symbols, Laboratory reference range values, Blood groups, Diagnosis related groups, Certified Regional Poison Control Centers, CDC Universal Precautions, AIDS - resources (By State), AIDS Hotlines (By State), and AIDS education & training centers (By region).
- 27th Edition comes in 2098 pages, and was published by Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins company (great company by the way!), 2000.
I wish there could be Stedman's Dictionary on PDA handhelds (e.g. Palm) in the future.
I strongly advise medical students and other health care workers to use this invaluable dictionary. 10/10

Summary: It's got it all!
Comment: Studying pharmacy, I often come across huge medical terms that aren't in my scope of education. I do, however, need to know what they mean right now. Lucky for me, this dictionary is very comprehensive. There is an excellent word finder section and a very useful section on medical abbreviations, common symbols and all kinds of other helpful stuff.
The one drawback to this book is its size. It is a little big and heavy to cart around from school to home but other than that - the perfect assistant!
Rating: 5
Summary: Endless list of medical terms.
Comment: This is a great medical dictionary that has every possible medical term. It is 2,000 pages of great illustrations, easy to understand definitions and very complete. You have other medical dictionaries but Stedman's beat them all hands down. You get this medical dictionary, you very likely may not need another. Stedman's will cover all your medical terminology needs.
