Barbara Janson Cohen uses a stepwise approach to learning medical
terminology. Part 1 describes howmedical terms are built fromword
parts; Part 2 introduces body structures, diseases, and treatments;
and Part 3 describes each body system. Individual chapters also build
on knowledge in stages: the Key Terms sections list the terms most
commonly used;more specialized terms are included in a later section
entitled “SupplementaryTerms.”
Thecurrentedition includesarobuststudentancillarypackagedelivered
under the PASSport to Success brand, with assessment exercises,
chapter quizzes, and searchable text online, and a complete suite of
instructor resources. The addition of PrepU as a packaging option
provides a powerful value to students - the online study experience
helps them to understand and retain course information and helps
instructors tobetter assesswhat their studentsmaybe strugglingwith.
