zatsue said Spelling Guide and Dictionary. We use this book in a dental office to look up the spelling of prescription drugs used by our patients and to make notes as to the purpose of the drugs. This is the second edition of the Saunders book we have used and are very happy with it.. "Awesome as always." according to Ionia Froment. Last year I found a less costly pharmaceutical book on amazon and bought it rather than Saunders. Going back after having ordered this one and looking at the other product reaffirmed what a poor choice that was. Saunders is definitely the best. The descriptions are easy to read and understand and the layout of the book is very neatly organized for easy navigation. The books are always full of the most up to date information for that year and this one is no exception.. One of the best reference books for those in the medical profession I purchased this on a recommedation from one of my co-workers at the hospital where I am a temporary medical transcriptionist. Let me say I am glad I did. This is a very comprehensive reference with up-to-date information. I use this several times during the course of my day. The other pharmaceutical reference I was using is not nearly as complete, even though it too is a 2011 edition by another publisher, so I glad that I got this. I recommend it for medical student
