Our course was organized to be covered in an 8 week period, so this was a great book to use for basic medical terms. It had plenty of practice problems, and even explained medical procedures, using a variety of illustrations/photos to depict certain terminology. Learning the roots, prefixes, suffixes, etc, was like learning a new language, which requires repetition in practice. Between the fill ins throughout the chapter, review at the end of each chapter, and the cd that came with the book, it was very helpful for memorization and easy to navigate through the course without feeling overwhelmed. The appendices and glossary in the back were also great to use as a reference. It's much more affordable than other medical terminology texts, and pretty much teaches the same information.
