Chances are if you are getting this textbook its because a class required it as a textbook. I've used other medical terminology books in the past and I've had much better experiences with them. While most books are typically the same, the way the information is organized differs.Overall, you will learn the word roots, prefixes, and suffixes just like you would using most other books. I have two main issue with this book.The way the material is organized is in a tabled format, with the medical term on the left in a box and a description/definition on the right in a box. There is nothing wrong with this and I actually liked how straight forward it was. My issue was the fact that many of the description boxes had the medical term bolded within it, so that means you cannot cover up the medical term to the left and practice reading the definition and recalling the term because its staring right back at you. You would have to make flashcards and rewrite every medical word with every single definition, so that you can practice reading the definition. This is very time consuming and annoying, and could easily be fixed by reorganizing the way the description/definition box is written.Secondly, each chapter is essentially divided up into three sections: signs and symptoms, disease and disorders, and treatments. The book has practice questions after each of these individual sections before a full chapter review. My question is why are only some of the words tested? We are expected to learn all of the medical terms and become fluent in them, yet many of them do not have some form of practice questions to reinforce them. It would be very nice to see review questions on each medical term we worked hard to learn.So if you need this for your class, you have no other option. If you're looking to look medical terminology on your own, seek another textbook.
Does NOT have the Pearson Code. Just so you know. I had to buy it separate and it cost me another $70. I thought where the both ISBN #'s were there, it would have both. Had I read the entire description, I would've known.
Nice job!! A great addition to my library!
fast delivery, great quality
