Mosby's Medical, Nursing, & Allied Health Dictionary (5TH INDEXD)
MOSBY'S DICTIONARY set a new standard for English-language medical dictionaries by being the first to offer full-color illustrations throughout. The fifth edition features over 2,300 illustrations which have been carefully selected to enhance the definitions of a wide variety of medical terms, especially those pertaining to anatomy, equipment, and skin and eye disorders. The illustrations not only add to the dictionary's visual appeal, but also allow for the illustration of many conditions which cannot be shown effectively in black and white. Other strengths include large, easy-to-read typeface, a practical, strict alphabetical organization with no subentries, comprehensive definitions for key entries such as major diseases, disorders and procedures, detailed drug entries, the Color Atlas of Human Anatomy, and the variety of practical reference information included in the appendixes. 5,000 new entries, 400 new illustrations, and extensive revisions to existing entries and appendixes.
