Summary

Since the first edition of Medical Terminology: A Living Language was published it has been noted for its "clean" and logical format that promotes a seemless learning experience.nbsp;nbsp;Thenbsp;Fourth Edition provides users with a consistent and logical system to help them build their understanding of medical terminology as it relates to the human body. This book maintains a real-world focus that relates medical terminology to various health professions, thereby capturing the users interest and providing information about potential future health careers. This information is reinforced withnbsp;some key new features such as : an all-new art program carefully crafted by a medically trained illustrator;nbsp; the System At A Glance chapter-opening feature which provides a quick reference for each topic being discussed in terms of its function, organs, combining forms, suffixes, and prefixes; the pharmacology tables which have been expanded to include commonly used generic and brand names; and much more.
