For all courses covering medical terminology
Promote mastery of medical language with an immersive experience
One of the best ways to learn a language is to immerse yourself in all aspects of that language.Medical Language: Immerse Yourself does just that. It includes an unsurpassed quantity and variety of exercises to actively engage readers with the material and hone their word-building skills. Its appealing, uncluttered design contains hundreds of colorful, interesting images and plenty of white space for easy reading and note taking. And, its intuitive organization is based on medical specialties, not just body systems, so readers understand how what they are learning is applied in the real world of healthcare. Throughout the text, learners are encouraged to listen, speak, write, watch, examine, and make connections — all of the activities they need to truly master the language of medicine.

Making a Splash
The breadth is excellent, and this book includes innovative
teaching tools not available in other texts.
–Ann Minks,

The writing style is great. It is light, easy to read and
understand. –Karin Sherrill,

I LOVE integrating the word building into each chapter.
I think it will make the word building much more relevant
to students. –Tricia Berry,
Hamilton College
I have students ranging in age from 18 to 50s. It would be
hard to find a writing style to fit them all, but I feel this book
would do the job. –Judy Anderson,
Coastal Carolina Community College
The illustrations and photos are awesome. –Cynthia Thompson,
Alamance Community College
The author takes the medical terminology textbook up
another level. –James Hudacek,
Lorain County Community College
It is geared to the whole person rather than just a clinical
approach to anatomy and physiology. It’s the “rest of the
story” that adds the interest and gives depth.
–Juanita R. Bryant,
Cabrillo College and Sierra College
Excellent book. –Paula Hagstrom,
Ferris State University
The wide diversity of subjects in the photos, and the
excellent diversity of artwork was way beyond my
expectations. Most books do not use enough visuals to
break up the written word, but I think this text is generous
in the use of color and visuals. –Susan Buboltz ,
Madison Area Technical College
Exactly what we were looking for.
–Ruth Ann O’Brien,
Miami Jacobs Career College

terminology texts...The illustrations are REAL and varied
...There are too many great features to list.

The quality and quantity of illustrations are OUTSTANDING!!!

Undoubtedly, this IS one of the BEST medical terminology
books I have seen. It goes beyond the scope and
concept of any other medical terminology book I have
seen in 10 years.

National College ofBusiness & Technology
You truly have taken into account what is important to the
learner in today’s society.
