"Now in its third edition, Medical Terminology Made Incredibly Easy! contains everything nurses and other health care practitioners need to promote real understanding and retention of "must-know" medical terminology. Building in a logical sequence that promotes retention, the first chapter focuses on key concepts of medical terminology, including a detailed look at word components that are common in medical terminology. Subsequent chapters focus on individual body systems, providing in-depth definitions that help connect words to their meanings. The book tackles the subject matter in the award-winning, light-hearted Incredibly Easy! style that makes intimidating concepts thoroughly approachable. Includes two 8-page, full-color inserts that offer an even closer look at anatomical terminology and a variety of new features, including online electronic ancillaries." -- Publisher description |
