The Oxford Companion to Medicine is a guide to the field of medicine and its many specialties. Edited by Stephen Lock, John M. Last, and George Dunea, this reference book contains over 500 substantial articles written by more than 200 contributors.[1] The book covers a wide range of topics, from abortion to zombification, and includes detailed information on complementary therapies, national medical systems, and the history of medicine.[1]

The latest edition of the Oxford Companion to Medicine has been completely rewritten and features a greater emphasis on the history of medicine, its connections to the arts and music, and its international nature.[1] This updated edition has received praise from The Lancet, which called it "crammed full of fascinating titbits of information on a hugely broad range of topics while containing trustworthy and comprehensive reviews."

In addition to covering all major medical and nursing specialties, the Oxford Companion to Medicine also provides analysis of the latest developments in medical research and practice.[1]
