Mosby's Pocket Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing & Allied Health

The only pocket-sized dictionary with strong emphasis on nursing and allied health terminology, this guide is derived from "Mosby's Medical, Nursing, and Allied Health Dictionary" and includes nearly all terms defined in that dictionary condensed and shortened to incorporate only essential information. Approximately 5,000 new definitions have been added, and existing definitions have been revised; a new appendix of medical symbols and abbreviations has also been added.
