1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing to learn, January 16, 2000

By 

Gail Williams (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Medical Transcription and Terminology: An Integrated Approach (Paperback)

The discription of this book sounds good. It will make you think that you are going to learn from this book. In reality, you must have the audio tapes or the book is useless. I can't find the tapes to purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good reference but a poor teacher!, January 22, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Medical Transcription and Terminology: An Integrated Approach (Paperback)

This book is a good reference book if you are already transcribing. It is useless as a teaching tool without the audio tapes. The audio tapes are expensive for 6 - 90 minute tapes and must be ordered from Delmar Publishers. Unless you are enrolled in a class and have the tapes available from your school I would not recommend this book for beginners.
