内容説明
Mosby?s Pocket Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing, and Allied Health is the only pocket-sized dictionary with a strong emphasis on nursing and allied health terminology. It is derived from Mosby?s Medical, Nursing, and Allied Health Dictionary and includes nearly all terms defined in our large dictionary. Definitions in Mosby?s Pocket Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing, and Allied Health are condensed and shortened to incorporate only essential information. Word roots and pronunciations are included where appropriate, to help the reader learn and correctly use medical terminology. Screened ?thumb tabs? assist in quickly locating definitions, and a hard yet flexible cover increases the dictionary?s durability. Our pocket dictionary offers a less expensive alternative to students and practitioners who seek a comprehensive resource at a lower cost or who prefer the convenience of its size. Since cost is major factor in students? decisions regarding purchase of a ?medical? dictionary and since many students want to be able to conveniently carry a dictionary with them to class, these features are compelling for many students.
The revision of the pocket dictionary is based on the recently published fifth edition of Mosby?s Medical, Nursing, and Allied Health Dictionary. Approximately 4,800 new definitions have been added, and existing definitions have been revised based on extensive reviewer comments. A list of commonly used abbreviations has been added to the front and back endsheets, to increase the dictionary?s usefulness as a reference.
