I work in the medical field and wanted quick reference for medical terms (preferably with illustrations) for my new Kindle Paperwhite and/or my Galaxy Tab. The idea was to be able to quickly look up anything from vasculature to bone structure to pathology in one easy reference. The way this book is indexed it is too slow and difficult to look things up. It is actually faster for me to walk down the hall to the reference library, find the appropriate book, photocopy a page, and return, than it is to go to the alphabetical index on the kindle and page through until you find the term. The search function is slower yet and gives either nothing found or 40 pages of excerpts where the term is used but without a definition. It frequently gave "no results" for simple terms like "diabetes", "sinus tarsi", and "siphon".

This one is the best one I have found and I have bought three including this one. I bought the other two in past semesters and found that I needed to keep going elsewhere for key information I needed for study. I really like that each term is in boldface color. And there are many diagrams and pictures to help you visualize the part of the anatomy that some of the terms are referring to. It is a must have for any medical/nursing student. I also recommend getting the Mosby's flash cards also. They are the most detailed.
