5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, very thorough, March 8, 2009

By	Emily Crouch - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book for a class, ended up dropping it (before it started), and decided to study the book anyway. This book is very thorough; it has a ton of information in it and is good about explaining the prefixes and suffixes and roots of the terms. They really break down each word to make sure you understand it. They also have actual photos of several different skin disorders and things of that nature, which I found to be useful too.
