From the past to the present…master the language of medicine through its history.
Take a language-origin approach to mastering medical terminology through the root elements of medical terminology—the prefixes, suffixes, and combining forms from Greek and Latin.
Tales from ancient Greek and Latin writers, mythical stories of gods and goddesses, excerpts from the writings of ancient physicians, and modern stories of scientists and physicians who struggled to identify and accurately label the phenomena they observed, make them memorable. Exercises and activities make learning easy.
