Free medical encyclopedia for Android
WikiMed - Offline Medical Encyclopedia is a free medical knowledge repository for Android developed by Kiwix Team. If you’re in the medical field or studying to enter into the fight for human health and wellness, this will be a helpful tool for you. Developed from the vast medical knowledge contained on Wikipedia, this resource has all the information you need about health, wellness, sanitation, and human anatomy.
If you’re interested in learning more about the vast world around you, encyclopedias are a brilliant place to start. Another solid place to start is a dictionary. While these don’t have the same historical knowledge as encyclopedias, they are vast compendiums of lexical knowledge. If you’re looking for a good mobile dictionary, try the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary 10th Edition, or if you’d prefer a veritable compendium of fiction and other literary works, try Anybooks.
