Product Description
- Expand your working medical vocabulary
- Work at your own pace to master the latest terms and techniques
- Learn all the essential Greek and Latin building blocks
Learn at your own pace with the guidebook that has sold over 400,000 copies What word is used to describe a fatty tumor? Why are qualifiers necessary in medical terminology? How does kinesialgia occur? What does "involution" mean? With Quick Medical Terminology: A Self-Teaching Guide, Fourth Edition, you'll discover the answers to these questions and many more. Using a unique word-building system that begins with a review of Greek and Latin word roots, Shirley Steiner provides the tools necessary for building and sustaining a large working repertoire of medical terms. This new fourth edition helps readers understand the simple logic behind hundreds of seemingly incomprehensible words, featuring new review exercises and up-to-date examples. The step-by-step, clearly structured format of Quick Medical Terminology makes it fully accessible, providing an easily understood, comprehensive overview. Like all Self-Teaching Guides, Quick Medical Terminology allows you to build gradually on what you have learned-at your own pace. Questions and self-tests reinforce the information in each chapter and allow you to skip ahead or focus on specific areas of concern. Packed with useful, up-to-date information, this clear, concise volume is a valuable learning tool and reference source for practitioners and students who need to expand, improve, or refresh their medical vocabularies.

 Great foundation for medical terminology! December 27, 2008
Kristin D. Milatz (Searcy, AR)
I am currently halfway through the lessons of this book and I love it. I am working through it during my Christmas break between semesters. It is set up in an easy, quick way to learn, not only the meanings, but also the rules of building the words. It also has an extra appendix to teach you how to build words that use special (not commonly used) spellings when speaking in plural forms. You can go as quickly or as slowly as you need to. This is an excellent source for anyone going into a medical profession or for individuals just wanting to expand their vocabulary.
