Personal Review: Mosbys Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing &
Health Professions (Mosbys Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing,
and Health Professions) by Mosby
Wonderful resource book. As a nurse, I used this reference (an older
version) often throughout nursing school and continue to use it now in my
nursing career. This purchase was a gift to a friend preparing to enter
nursing school and she is already remarking at how much she is learning
and becoming familiar with through this book.
