Medical Terminology with Case Studies in Sports Medicine Paperback / softback

Medical Terminology with Case Studies in Sports Medicine provides an enjoyable way to learn medical terminology - without details of therapy, pharmacological treatment, or surgical options of diseases. Instead, this text uses a fun method to deliver an overview of anatomy relevant to each body system, and explains new word elements of that system. The pirate skeleton, and his trusty side kick (the pegged-legged dog), on the cover is the guide through the textbook.

Each chapter is an island that relates to a body system - pointing out interesting tidbits that help make learning a new language fun. Students will build upon word parts (prefixes. suffixes, word roots) learned in each chapter and have a better understanding of the whole language of medical terminology. Medical Terminology with Case Studies in Sports Medicine: Features clear full color illustrations depicting anatomy throughoutIncludes perforated pages making it easy for students to submit homework assignmentsIncorporates learning activities (along with answers in the appendix) into each chapterBlends case studies and accompanying learning activities in each of the chapters in Part Two.
