Internet needed I ordered this not realizing that I would need internet access to use the CD. While out in the field, I don't have an internet connection available (wireless either). Not being able to use this offline defeated the purpose of purchasing it with the CD.
Great information This book is very helpful. It explains things in plain english. This has been most helpful in my studies.
Good Book This book was in perfect condition, not written in or bent. It arrived very fast. I would buy from this seller agian.
Tabler's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary Excellent, will use for a lifetime. Added benefit, that it is on my computer also.
It's never lupus! I love this book compared to "stanton" at my school. I found that dictionary to be too big and wordy. This book was even approved by my professor, so any med student should seriously consider buying this nice reference book. There isn't much more I can say, enjoy!
