The Complete Idiot's Guide to Medical Terminology by Veronica Hackethal

An essential guide for anyone in a healthcare career, The Complete Idiot's Guide(R) to Medical Terminology shows readers how to master medicine's core terminology so they can successfully pass their academic courses and certification tests.

Readers will be introduced to Greek and Latin roots -- the building blocks for deciphering any term encountered. They'll also find an outline of the body's systems to learn terms in context, an explanation of the body's physiology, and a primer on commonly used terms for diseases, injuries, conditions, tests, and procedures.
