Medical Encyclopaedia - Medical Dictionary

More comprehensive than a medical dictionary, a medical encyclopaedia covers everything there is to know about any illness, medical condition or injury known to man, regardless of how obscure it may seem. It will include illustrations, a detailed definition of the condition, causes, risk factors, symptoms, treatments, treatment expectations, complications and prevention advice for each illness or condition.

Medical encyclopaedias will cite the latest medical research evidence and may also point you in the direction of further reading should you need to find out more. As well as providing all of this information, medical encyclopaedias also provide step-by-step advice on how to deal with common situations such as bullying at school or emotional upset caused by a death in the family.

Medical encyclopaedias are generally compiled by respected research institutions or well-known medical organisations with specialist resources amassed from experts the world over. For added convenience, most suppliers grant access to their medical encyclopaedias on-line and as a CD, making it easier for you to search for information on different conditions. Where the medical encyclopaedia is published on-line, all medical terms are cross-linked to their reference page in the encyclopaedia or to a separate glossary.
