    I wouldn’t say it’s pocket sized, but it’s small enough that it doesn’t take a lot of space in a bag
    A lot of information, very useful

    As a medical student this is a great little book to keep with you. Normally I keep in my locker as it is a little big for to put in my pockets but really useful and good value.

    It’s great for helping you to understand a word your not too sure about and also if you want to use definitions in your assignments, great reference

    As a new student nurse I was advised to buy a dictionary to pop into my pocket for when on placements etc. I bought the ‘original’ Oxford Nurses Dictionary which is quite a hefty size, and not pocket-friendly.
    So – when I saw this advertised I decided to purchase this one. But – although this is a lot smaller in size – it’s just as thick – and with smaller writing!

    Great little book, that would be the only thing that I don’t like it’s too small.
