<strong>The</strong> <strong>Concise</strong> <strong>Dictionary</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Modern</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong><br />
Introduction<br />
Most seasoned writers, present company included, view introductions as necessary<br />
evils. In the past, I poured my heart out and spent months fine-tuning what publishers<br />
call, perhaps inelegantly, front material, only to learn that few readers give intros<br />
more than a cursory flick-through…that’s assuming it’s a “real” book…which dictionaries<br />
aren’t…really. So the lexicographer with a burning message is advised to<br />
shake the spray can really hard and graffiti the message short, loud and clear before<br />
the uptown A train leaves the Brooklyn yard for morning rush hour.<br />
A student in the health pr<strong>of</strong>essions soon realises that the standard (read, big) medical<br />
dictionaries are pretty useless affairs. While the 100,000 or so entries corralled by either<br />
the Stedman’s or Dorland’s medical dictionaries may sound impressive, they<br />
rarely provide more than a line or two <strong>of</strong> information—which most reasonably<br />
bright people know already, or can tease out <strong>of</strong> the word or phrase itself, assuming<br />
they have a rudimentary knowledge <strong>of</strong> the Greek and/or Latin roots. But the opposite<br />
end <strong>of</strong> the spectrum is equally problematic. <strong>The</strong> “logo-naut” who drills down on<br />
a term can unintentionally pop out in China saddled with far too much, or even unrelated,<br />
information. What’s needed in the marketplace is a medical dictionary written<br />
by a doctor that provides Goldilocks with a porridge that’s just right.<br />
I published this collection with McGraw-Hill in 2006 to fill the gap between too little<br />
and too much information. It was gratifyingly well-received as a paper product by<br />
the targeted pr<strong>of</strong>essional student and junior doctor audience. Its popularity expanded<br />
to reach a wider public from allied health pr<strong>of</strong>essionals including nurses,<br />
physical therapists and medical transcriptionists to generic logophiles. Given that<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Concise</strong> contains a cornucopia <strong>of</strong> useful terms that aren’t in the big medical dictionaries,<br />
I view it as a necessary supplement to either the Stedman’s or Dorland’s…<br />
which students may soon find make excellent doorstops or add just enough height<br />
to junior’s booster seat so he can fling mashed potatoes from eye level.<br />
While most <strong>of</strong> the nearly 23,000 entries are still timely and I have revised it a bit, the<br />
death knell has sounded on paper dictionaries—I’ll let someone else turn out the<br />
lights when that last ship sails out the harbour. This edition straddles the divide between<br />
the fading paper and the burgeoning electronic worlds <strong>of</strong> medical lexicography.<br />
In response to this sea change in delivering this genre <strong>of</strong> information, I am<br />
porting the material from a collection that now has 170,000 entries to a database so<br />
future editions won’t be bogged down by the costs, delays and even legal issues inherent<br />
in print media. <strong>The</strong> next edition <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Concise</strong> should be available by 2014; it<br />
will be substantially larger and ideally at or near the same price.<br />
Now the apologies: I’m new to ePub, a format that limits the writer to one typeface.
All <strong>of</strong> the visual pyrotechnics and fancy fontwork (the up and down arrows, male<br />
and female symbols, even the Greek letters which are almost mission critical) to<br />
which I had grown accustomed in classic layouts (Quark XPress) were sacrificed for<br />
the greater good.<br />
To reduce the number <strong>of</strong> trees chopped down for the print version I used hundreds<br />
<strong>of</strong> abbreviations, a device that is no longer necessary; expanding out the short forms<br />
has not been completely straight forward; I ask the reader who stumbles on the occasionally<br />
bumpy syntax to be gentle, as I’m addressing this issue at the database level.<br />
A few abbreviations have survived the expansion. It is taken for granted that the average<br />
reader using this reference will know such “standard” abbreviations as CSF,<br />
WBCs, RBCs, Hb, Hct and so on. Call it my Eurotrash-in-training snobbery or blame<br />
it on the three semesters I spent studying in Berlin, but EKG stands as electrocardiogram<br />
and electrocardiography; let my fellow lexicographers writhe.<br />
Format: It seems appropriate to explain some details as to the layout <strong>of</strong> the entries<br />
(1) Chlorophyllum molybdites (2) Lepiota morgenii (3) TOXICOLOGY (4) A mushroom that<br />
causes non-fatal poisoning (5) CLINICAL Nausea, cramping, diarrhea for up to 3 days–the active components<br />
<strong>of</strong> C molybdites are GI irritants MANAGEMENT Supportive, as for severe gastritis (6) See Poisonous<br />
mushroom<br />
(1) Entry name, in bold, italicised if it’s an organism, legal case or otherwise necessary<br />
(2) Synonym(s), plain text, much smaller size<br />
(3) Subject area, all caps, large<br />
(4) Definition itself, plain text<br />
(5) Subheadings within the definition that provide information about clinical findings,<br />
imaging, prognosis, management, etc, all caps, small<br />
(6) Cross references, plain text, much smaller size<br />
I think that’s about it.<br />
