　　This book contains many frequently used and important medical terminologies from various specializations in medicine & nursing, including Medical-Surgical Nursing, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Pediatrics, Psychiatry and Community Health. To help readers who are new to medical terminologies, the first chapter (Learning Useful Medical Terms) introduces prefixes, suffixes and roots and their roles in English. Chapter 2 (Prefixes, Suffixes, and Roots) continues the previous chapter by giving useful examples of frequently used terms to reinforce learning. In addition, at the end of each chapter there are exercise questions (and solutions) which allow readers to self-examine their learning effectiveness.

　　The accompanying mp3 CD-ROM guides the readers through the book in 3-and-a-half hours of reading time. It’s an indispensable tool for self-learning. There are also specially-designed vocabulary cards at the back of the book. Readers are encouraged to cut them out for easy reference and for practice purposes.
