5.0 out of 5 stars Very Easy to Understand

I This book had what I was looking for. It has taught me that medical terminology is made up of root words, prefixes, and suffixes. To understand the terminology, the systems to which it is associated must first be understand.

It was very easy to find what is needed since it is well organized. In the introduction the medical terminology is explained carefully. It covered on how to deconstruct a medical term and decipher its meaning and how to pluralize the term.

I am able to understand the logic of medical terminology, its etymology, acronyms, eponyms, homonyms, and formation of plurals. I find its origin or etymology really interesting. It also does have illustrations. There are medical terms of the body systems included in the illustrations and medical terms related to body structure and organization which made it easier to understand.

This book is pretty much anything and everything you ever wanted to know about Medical Terminology. Including fairly in depth accounts of the human body itself, delving into each and every system and its functions. Whether you're in the medical field or just reading for fun, the format of the book creates an easy to read and easy to understand publication. It is good to learn etymology because the root of the word, or the main part of the word, usually talks about what you are dealing with, usually a body part. This book is great and useful too, thumbs up to author for sharing her knowledge.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book does a great job teaching root words, prefixes and suffixes
Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2016

This book on medical terminology was really thorough and complete, and I learned a great deal studying it. I particularly enjoyed the way things were broken down so simply so that they were easy to understand, and I feel like they make more sense. On a very basic level, I feel like certain terms that I would have a hard time even reading or sounding out, I can now understand based on root words, prefixes and suffixes, which make up the vast majority of medical terms. If you know the basics, you can know more complex things, and this book definitely enables you to do that. So, five stars and highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am sure that this book would be great for people

For someone preparing for exams in the sphere, this is a real helper! However, I am sure that this book would be great for people, who know nothing of medical terminology. For example, the list of prefixes with its definitions really makes the studying process easy. I have always believed in the fact that when you actually know what something means, it is a lot easier to memorise and understand compared to when you just blindly try to memorise. This book really well explains the definition of medical terms, and therefore tremendously aids in the process of learning!

Such an informative book that I don't know where to start. It's basically ABC for every medic who wants to know how medical terms are made of. When you know it's not that hard. You have to understand root words, prefixes and suffixes which everyone of them has their own chapter to explain It has some practical tests too. It's just so much information in this book that I won't even bother telling everything. Only thing you need to know that it's the only book you will need in regards of medical terms. Cheers!
