paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Classical Roots for Medics is the perfect book for medical students, nurses, medical secretaries and anyone else who needs to get to grips with difficult medical terminology but wants to find a better way than memorizing word lists. It has entries for all the core Greek and Latin prefixes, suffixes and terms that make up so much medical vocabulary: once students are familiar with these, they find it easier to break down terms, which in turn helps with learning the words and working out what unfamiliar terms mean. The A-Z format makes it easy to look up any word or affix without having to know which part of the body it relates to, and, unlike a medical dictionary, the entries give plural forms, opposites and Greek and Latin equivalents, and highlight easily confused words. So if you're not sure of the difference between humeral and humoral, need to know if that artery is brachial, branchial or bronchial, or wonder why hydrocephalus is spelt with a 'y' but hidropoiesis with an 'i', then this book is for you. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
