Of course I'd love to go to a bookstore and see for myself but I cant do that now. Based on YOUR experience which one was better? or are the 2 equal?
 
get the mosby. you will 90% likely get a steadman's medical dict. free from school and the ama. you will love the pictures of the mosby allied health and it's mostly in an understandable language.

i'm sorry !!! maybe you could take it back or exchange it? i would not tell you to take it back if i didn't just LOVE my mosby allied health!!! it is great to have pics and to have a definition that doesn't require me to look up other words. i'm just starting my first day, but have already been looking in my mosby for words. the pics are gonna be really useful if i ever have to understand what i'm looking for...
i still say try to get a mosby's by any means

best wishes
