    Book list.. pick one.

    Got our booklist in today. Hoping to get a word of expertise in the room about 2 books to choose from. Any reviews would be much appreciated.

    1) Berne & Levy Physiology. (6th ed.). ISBN-13: 9780323073622 ($115.00 - school approximate)

    OR

    2) Textbook of Medical Physiology (12th ed.) ISBN-13: 9781416045748 ($125.00 - school approximate)

    My heart tells me #2, but my wallet says #1.. what's an extra $10 anyways.

    Also, best medical dictionary out there? School listed Mosby’s, Taber’s, Stedman’s or Dorland’s to choose from.

    I know nothing about #2, but Berne and Levy is EXTREMELY dense. It is great as a reference, but don't try to read more than a paragraph at a time.

    Not familiar with either of the ones you listed so I don't want to give my opinion there, but for a medical dictionary go with Taber's
