Having been in the medical field for over 20 years, Stedman's has always been my favorite; comprehensive and complete, yet easy enough to understand for those of us who work the administrative end. This newest version is better than ever: tabs and lots of pictures.

Just remember though...this is a FULL, DESKTOP version and not one to carry around in your backpack. It is perfect for the certified coder (or becoming one), the transcriptionist, the medical assistant, or the practice administrator.

I am working towards a Medical Assistant degree and found this book to be helpful. I can look up prefixes for medical words and this book has pictures too that help with understanding. It is easy to follow and easy to read. It also has a bonus CD rom and a free 1 year subscription to Stedman's Online. Glad I bought it!

My cousin is a medical transcriptionist and I am studying to be one- only 1 month or so before I am ready to take my final exam. Purchased this book to help me "decode" some of the anatomical terms as well as diseases. I find that this book does not have some of the more in-depth terms, but a part of me also wonders if some medical professionals tend to make up their own words... As far as I've heard or read, this is the best book in the business that is available and Amazon had it at the best price.
