My Little Medical Bible January 5, 2009
Format:Leather Bound|Amazon Verified Purchase
As a Radiologic Technologist student, I purchased this book to use in my clinicals when I need to find a quick medical definition or proper spelling. Its small enough to fit nicely in my backpack without taking up too much space. Even though its called a pocket dictionary it's too big to fit in anyone's pocket (5.5 X 7 and about 1.5 inches thick). Each listing has the proper pronunciation, definition, synonym, abbreviation, and any cross-references. It has more medical terms than any other book I have found in its size. It won't take the place of Mosby's Dictionary, but when I'm away from my home its perfect. In the back of the book are about twenty pages of color pictures of different human anatomy with each part labeled. Also, it comes with a disk that merges all the medical terms into Microsoft Word so that spell checking a paper is quick. I've used it in Office 2000 and Office 2007.

Great Dictionary March 22, 2009
Format:Leather Bound|Amazon Verified Purchase
This soft covered pocket dictionary will be great to take anywhere with me, but still packs an amazing amount of information and extra tidbits. The photos and other references are also extremely handy. So, far I haven't felt the need to pick up another medical dictionary yet. I also appreciated the bonus medical spell checker software for MS Word!

By Annie
Format:Leather Bound|Amazon Verified Purchase
This product comes with a CD-ROM for spelling of terms that can be used in Microsoft Word. The problem with my copy was that it DOES NOT support Microsoft Word 2007, or 2010 only old versions. What a joke even supplying such an old program. This CD-ROM is a joke.
