Medical Terminology An Illustrated Guide 9th Edition

Medical Terminology: An Illustrated Guide, Ninth Edition, will help you develop a basic knowledge of medical terminology needed for a career in the medical field. The book opens with an overview of the parts of the human body and the human body as a whole, followed by an overview of diseases and treatments. Subsequent chapters on each body system provide an illustrated overview of each system, along with definitions of key terms related to each system. This is followed by a table of the parts of each term and exercises on its use. The order of the chapters on the systems follows the same sequence found in a traditional A&P course. Turning to the chapter on abnormalities, there is a section on disease and treatment, followed by definitions of relevant key terms.
