Editorial Review:
A proven and unique combination of learning principles and exercises, this widely respected book continues to get better! Medical Terminology for Health Professions, Fifth Edition, simplifies the process of learning hundreds of difficult, complex medical terms. The see and say pronunciation system makes pronouncing unfamiliar terms easy. Because word parts are such an important aspect of learning medical terminology, mastery of these building blocks is emphasized throughout the book. Organized by body system, chapters begin with an overview of the structures and functions of that system so you can relate these to specialty, pathology, diagnostic, and treatment procedures that follow.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Too many errors
I found too many errors within this text. I was amazed that they were not located in the proofing prior to selling. I had no choice but to use this book for a class in Medical Assisting. Major errors including defining terms with the wrong definition. One section states a word meaning one thing and then the next section had a complete different definition. I recommend any instructor seeing this to use another text.
Rating:  - Excellent!
This book was in better than good condition, came soon enough for me to catch up in class and had the required components, thanks a lot for saving me money!
Rating:  - Great Price; Fast delivery
The book arrived in the condition expected and also earlier than the website estimate. Amazon is one of the best places to shop.
Rating: - Great intro to medical terms
I am working toward a Medical Coding certificate/degree, and this is the book we use in my Medical Terminology class. This book is well laid out, there are plenty of illustrations, it even comes with flash cards and an interactive computer cd to help you study. It makes it easy for a beginner to grasp the basic concepts of anatomy, diseases, procedures, and their commonly used abbreviations.
And this book is a bargain from Amazon. My school sells it for over $100.
Rating: - Excellent
I am just about finished with my first semester studying medical transcription at a Technical college. This book was required for one of my classes. I love this book. I love the way it is laid out and I especially like the quizzes at the end of each chapter. I found this book to be extremely easy to use and it is written in a way that is clear and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend this book.
