I used this text for an online course in medical terminology and was more than satisfied with the results. The author structured the book in such a way that it appeals to all learning styles--visual, auditory (using the audio CD or tape), and even movement (using the accompanying CD interactive exercises). Programmed learning is employed by the author and is a very effective way of teaching this "new language." I would recommend this book to anyone entering the allied health fields.

The product overall is a masterpiece. The author did a wonderful job creating a "fun" atmosphere to learn. Even with years of experience in the medical field, I was still able to learn a lot through this book.

I took an online medical terminology class and felt I didn't learn as much as I should have because the book for that class was aweful. So I ordered Peggy Leonard's Quick and Easy Medical Terminology to better learn the terminlogy myself over the summer. I'm half way through it and it's awesome. I've learned so much more with this book. It is easy, laid out well and thoroughly teaches the basics. Peggy Leonard keeps it interesting too. The audio tape and CD Rom is also helpful. Highly recommended!

I once knew a fellow who told me that he spoke only eleven *modern* languages fluently. When he told me, I wished that I could touch his hand and what he knew would osmose to me.

Of course learning a new language is not that easy. And except for the fact that one does not have to learn a new grammar, learning a new terminology is the same. It takes *work*. What can make these learning processes easier is having a teacher who knows how to organize the material so that learning associations come more readily.

There's no osmosis. Peggy Leonard does an outstanding job of organizing the material so that one can most easliy learn medical terminology. _Quick and Easy_ does it.

The book and cd's are exactly what I needed. The only thing I was not too happy about is that it's the fact that all the worksheets are completed in writing therefore I am not really able to review and try and answer my own practice questions because the answers were there. It would have been nice if that information would have been disclosed before I purchase the book. The fact that I needed the book asap is what made me keep the book otherwise I would have opted for another book without the writing or even paid for a new one.

This book is fun and to the point. It came with 3 cd's which I thought would be great. Rather, it is just somone saying words ver and over. The CD's would be good for someone that need help with pronunciation, or emglish. But the book is good.

Paid extra to get book next day through Amazon.com. Spiral edition has a chapter upside down and many of the pages are loose. Not what I expected for over $50.00. Never again!

I found this book to be so much more digestible then any other med term books Ive seen. Highly recommend!! fast shipment too.. thanks!

This is exactly what I needed for my class. The book was in great shape. I will buy from them again.

This was a good book to learn with. However, it has a lot of information in each chapter to remember for classes.
