Dictionary of Medical Terms - Rebecca Sell

Barron's updated and expanded Dictionary of Medical Terms is an A-Z reference that defines medical terms in a way everyone can understand. Although written primarily as a home reference guide, it's also useful for medical instructors, student nurses, and others in the healthcare professions.

Thousands of terms and definitions cover:

Descriptions of diseases and their symptoms Healthcare policy and law First-aid procedures Human anatomy and body parts Medications and their applications Instructive tables covering important elements, vitamins, trade and generic names of commonly prescribed drugs, and much more

Many terms are supplemented with instructive line illustrations, and extensive cross-references help guide you through the book.
