- Best one ive seen so far
This dictionary give more than definitions and meanings. It give signs and symptoms to the related condition, the diagnostic investigations and the required care for most conditions.

- Tabers Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary, 20th ed.
Am in the process of returning the book because it is missing pages 1677 through 1708. The wierd thing is that it doesn't look like those pages were removed; instead, it appears as if the book was made without the them; the binding looks tight and all. Maybe the book is super rare -- like a coin with a minting flaw.... Does anyone else have a copy of the 20th edition with those pages, or others, missing?
PS. The book is absolutely terrific otherwise.

- Tabler's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary, 21st Ed (Thumb Index Ver)
Well organized and easy to read and index. Comes with free year of Skyscape and online Tabler's edition also. On par with Mosby's Dictionary. Comes with CD for those who are challenged by pages in a book.

I bought Taber's for School and it's awsome and very helful to me with the Medical Terminology. I'm glad I made this purchase and it's reasonably purchased.
