Synopsis

Use a proven combination of learning principles and exercises to make learning medical terminology easier . Now in its 7th Edition, MEDICAL TERMINOLOGY FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONS simplifies the process of memorizing complex medical terminology by focusing on the important word parts -- the common prefixes, suffixes and root words -- to provide a foundation for learning hundreds of medical terms. Organized by body systems, the chapters begin with an overview of the terminology related to the body's structures and functions, then proceed through diseases and disorders, and finally diagnostic procedures and treatments. This helps students master the necessary language to describe how the human body works, what goes wrong with it, and how we treat it. Every chapter engages learners with the See and Say pronunciation system, interactive exercises, real life medical scenarios and critical thinking exercises. An updated art program includes illustrations that reflect the latest terms and procedures, and multi-cultural /multi-generational photos that accurately portray today's medical world.

About this title

Review

"I think it's the best book on the market." "I use the CD-ROM for extra credit. I highly recommend its use. Students that use it usually score higher on exams. I find that students use in during downtimes and play the games and practice using exams. These are very useful!"David Stump-Fought, Heald College

The fact that these flash cards are alreadymade is a big time saver for many students."Mary Nichols, Heald College
