This workbook is really great. It explains how to combine prefixes, suffixes and root words in the medical language in simple terms. If you have never ever had Anatomy and Physiology, this is the book for you. Even if you are going to take the A & P course, this would help you somewhat. The book keeps repeating what you have learned in different ways to reinforce your knowledge. The CD is good too. Really pretty easy but it's a fun tool. I only found 1 mistake in the CD so far, but I have only been through it for the first few chapters. I didn't need the rest because the book was so good. Have fun with it.

For anyone interested in the human body, medical information on diseases and
tests. Very well written, understandable, highly informative. Fantastic book for
beginning students or anyone. Wonderful encephal food. You'll
find yourself saying, "So that's where they get that name from".

I used this book to prepare for the Certified Medical Transcriptionist exam. It is well-organized and makes the study of body systems very, very easy. It gives you several ways to learn the same information--pictures, words, having you write out answers in different ways. Heavy on prefixes and suffixes, which makes it easier to figure out unknown medical terms. I found the book a fabulous guide---and I passed my test, too! :D

Davi-Ellen Chabner's book is the best of its kind that I have read. I first used it as a student of medical terminology. Then, as luck would have it, Mrs. Chabner was the instructor for the human diseases course I took at an adult education certificate program in medical transcription. Talk about good fortune!

I purchased this book to help me study medical terminology. It is very useful and extremely informative. I especially like the illustrations. The book is easy to use, and I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to learn about the human body and all of its systems.

Amazing book, take the time to fill in all of the exercises. It takes a while but well worth it. I got an A in this class because of this!

This is an awesome book to help study for your CMT. I am finished with the study guide for work and using this book to keep me from forgetting what I need to know for this exam.

Studying for the CMT exam is so much easier with this book. Been an MT for 20 years, and this book is helping me understand things I never knew or just forgot about. Whether you are brushing up on your knowledge or just learning for the first time, this book is great! It is really easy to read and understand.

I bought this book because I am taking a medical terminology course online. I really like the way this book is laid out, how it teaches. You learn the roots and suffixes and prefixes of the words - not just the word itself. This way you can look at almost any word and figure out what it means because you know what each part of the word means. I would recommend this book, but you might want to build up your wrists first - my wrist is sore from lugging this HUGE book around - but it is worth it!

This book is very interesting and captures your attention to the point that it makes it interesting to memorize medical terms.
