"...a thorough, user-friendly and attractively presented reference book. I found that, unlike some other dictionaries, it contained an entry for almost every word and/or term that I looked up whilst 'road-testing' it. My first test was to look up 'appendicular skeleton', a term that was unfamiliar to me when I came across it whilst reviewing a paper; the dictionary explained it." <b><i>Journal of Clinical Nursing</i></b> <br /> <p>An essential text on every ward and every nurse's book shelf ... I would go so far as to recommend that it is the first book that student nurses should buy with their meagre book allowance!"<br /> <b><i>Journal of Advanced Nursing</i></b><br /> </p> <p>"This dictionary is clear, concise and easy to use…My advice to anyone wishing to purchase a nursing dictionary would be to…buy this one"<br /> <i>Journal of Advanced Nursing</i><br /> </p> <p><i>“very user friendly”</i><br /> <i>European Journal of Cancer Care</i></p>
