LaFleur's strength has always been its clear presentation of not only medical terms built from word parts, but also those not built from word parts, which are sometimes omitted from other texts. The text also reviews anatomic terminology. Another popular feature of the book is its wealth of exercises that help the student memorize the word parts and their meanings, so that they can combine the parts to form medical terms.A vivid, full-color page design and full-color illustrations emphasize terms to be learned, bring content to life, and make learning easier.Extensive learning aids for students, including flash cards, audiotapes with definitions and pronunciations, and an accompanying CD-ROM with additional exercises offer more valuable learning tools than any other medical terminology book.Comprehensive coverage distinguishes between terms built from word parts and those not easily recognized as built from word parts.Systemic presentation of medical terminology provides a foundation of word parts and shows how words are built by combining the parts, giving students a set of skills to recognize and define new words as they encounter them.Colour key for diagnostic, pathology, and pharmacy terms.
