The book begins with familiar terms and builds medical terminology knowledge by progressively introducing new root words, prefixes, and suffixes. Small segments of information are presented and immediately reinforced with activities and exercises - in a body system organization that lets readers complete chapters in any order after the initial introductory chapters., This innovative, "quick and easy" approach helps students quickly learn simple, basic tools for good communication in the health care environment.
