Aimed primarily at molecular bioscientists, clinicians, and students of biomedical courses, the dictionary is also a useful resource for patients and journalists wishing to research a particular disease.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's medical laboratory worker faces the need to understand an ever-widening range of specialist subjects. The increasing tendency for these to overlap leaves both scientifically and medically qualified staff - especially new entrants to the laboratory - with the difficult task of understanding the specialist language of many specialties other than their own. Medical laboratory scientists, pathologists and medical students need to be familiar with the languages of biotechnology, cellular pathology, clinical chemistry, computing, cytology, haematology, immunology, microbiology, microscopy, statistics, and transfusion science. The contributors to this dictionary , all acknowledged experts in their respective fields, have attempted to provide a guide to the whole of this specialized spectrum of scientific activity. The Dictionary of Medical Laboratory Sciences contains nearly three and a half thousand entries, mostly defining terms in use in the laboratory but also including notes on some disease states. These disease states form a major part of clinical laboratory work. The book, published in association with the Institute of Medical Laboratory Sciences, also includes a few biographical notes on those whose names are of a particular importance in the history of medical science. The book will be an invaluable study and revision guide for all students of the medical sciences, as well as a reference source for established laboratory workers and medical secretaries

This book is a little treasure.' -The Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists, 128'It's no laughing matter going to the doctor but at least this collection of cracking quotes can make the visit more bearable.' -Northern Echo'If you wish to pepper a presentation or if you enjoy writing... then you will find much in this volume to quote. I haven't counted them in detail, but I estimate there are in excess of 1500 quotations arranged in two ways: by author and by subject. This makes it very easy to locate a particular quotation, and as the title indicates they are all concerned in one way or another with various aspects of medicine... This is an excellent book to have beside you when writing an article or preparing a lecture. The selection is scholarly and the presentation excellent.' -Dr Alan EmeryThe Oxford Dictionary of Medical Quotations presents a wonderfully entertaining and eclectic range of quotations covering all aspects of medicine through the ages. It couples profound statements from famous scientists with witty one-liners from the likes of Woody Allen and Spike Milligan. Packed with hundreds of quotations, it is a book that anyone in the medical profession, or with an interest in health, will find an invaluable source of reference and considerable entertainment.Readership: Doctors in all areas of medicine.
