Excellent
by Mrs. Z. J. Sedgley
I think this book is very useful to have but i am very disappointed with the condition of it. I was told in the write up that it was in very good unmarked condition with uncreased spine. I found it to be dirty & torn with a very creased spine. A replacement was sent but it was no better,it has writing inside & has been ‘sticky back pastic’ backed with glittery starts underneath which is not acceptable in my opinion even if the price is low,they are only fit for the bin!

This dictionary has been an invaluable source of information throughout my time as a dental student. It explains medical and dental terms with clarity and enough depth if you just want a basic idea of what a particular term means. It hasn’t let me down so far! 🙂

This an excellent resource for medical secretaries everywhere (much better than Steadmans). Don’t leave it lying around though, those cheeky GP’s will whip anything off your desk that’s not chained down!
