Overall, this is an excellent textbook, but all things have positives and negatives. Its a combination of medical terminology and basic A&P, including graphic images/examples in high detail. Its gives a taste of what medical coding or medical transcription would feel like. It gives descriptions of how the terms/body relates to each other.

It categorizies by medical specialities rather than random words (aka neurology, cardiology, immunology, etc). There is almost too much to learn - What do I mean? You better hope your instructor is not someone who likes to quiz hard and use every part of the what the book is teaching. I do realize it would be a great reference book as a person advances in their medical classes/knowledge.

Its a VERY thick book - 932 pages, not including the Index or Appendix. Its quite heavy with smaller font. It provides many exercises/quizzes with the answer in the back. However, the paper is thin paper. If you write on it, you WILL see the indents from the otherside. Its not made for extensive writing. The glossary is not a *easy* quick reference. The glossary is categorized by prefix, suffix, and "combining forms", THEN by alphabetically order. I would of preferred just normal alphabetically order - otherwise you better know the category of the med term, or you may be looking around for a bit.

For the cost in relation to other textbooks, its worth its money. When I was just learning medical terminology, there was ALOT to take it.

Like other texts I have reviewed, I have taken medical terminology courses before, but none come close to the completeness of this one. If this text is part of your required program, then you are definitely on the right track. Definitely a step above all the rest!
