Book description
From the inception of this dictionary in the 1940s, all concerned with "Taber's" have devoted their efforts to producing an accurate, up-to-date health care resource that would serve any intelligent reader, but especially nurses and allied health professionals. "Taber's" is also invaluable to those in other professions, such as law, who require a reliable source of medical information. The present edition continues this effort by being the most useful dictionary available to the audiences we have traditionally served.
