5.0 out of 5 stars Medical Terminology A Systems Review, February 10, 2000

By	Julia (US) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Medical Terminology: A Systems Approach (Book with CD-ROM) (Paperback)

I received the book with CD as a gift because I will be entering the field of medicine. The book and CD are easy to follow and I have learned more than I ever expected in medical terminology.

The book is easy to follow and prepares you to read medical reports and to learn thousands of medical terms, including diagnostic, symptomatic, and surgical terms. The pronunciations help me pronounce words correctly when I talk to the medical staff at the hospital.

I recommend this book highly.

3.0 out of 5 stars There are better books out there....., March 14, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Medical Terminology: A Systems Approach (Medical Terminology Systems) (Paperback)

This book is a good introduction to medical terminology. It is not as comprehensive as some that are on the market, though. My edition did not come with a CD, but shows it as an optional tool. This book lacks a glossary and pronunciation of the medical terms. It does explain body processes in a way that makes it easy for the novice to understand, and that makes the book worth owning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for learning medical terminology!, December 17, 2009

By	99D2Kid "Mad Mind" (Morton, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Medical Terminology Systems: A Body Systems Approach + Audio CD + TermPlus 3.0 (Paperback)

I have learned so much from this book and CD! It's a great tool for learning medical terminology (and believe me, some of the words are VERY long and hard to say!). The book is filled with pictures, tables, activities, and diagrams. It makes learning medical terminology easier!

Easy to use and follow, Medical Terminology Systems: A Body Systems Approach has thousands of terms: Prefixes, suffixes, roots, abbreviations, medical, surgical, diagnostic, and pathological terms. The audio CD included helps you pronunce the words correctly. A great book for any medical professional and healthcare student! Recommended!
