How It Helps Your Business English
The record holds the book's details - authors, publisher, year, language and CC BY license - and the formats it comes in. Its table of contents lists eighteen chapters: word parts and rules, prefixes and suffixes, body terminology, the sensory, integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, urinary and reproductive systems, and obstetrics.
You can work through the first two chapters to learn how roots, prefixes and suffixes build a medical term, then take one body system at a time as it comes up in your work. Each chapter keeps its terms in the context of anatomy and physiology, so you meet a word beside the structure it names. The reviews on the record tell you how instructors have used the book with their own classes.
