Product Information
This text is a programmed learning approach to mastering entry-level medical terminology. Unlike similar texts that rely on memorization of vocabulary lists, Medical Terminology Made Easy, 3E promotes learning through word building, which enables students to correctly define and construct terms from Greek and Latin roots and to decipher new words they encounter. Units are grouped by topic and body system and each builds from simple to complex through a series of instructional and interactive frames and pronunciation coaching.Product Identifiers
