This isn't the best medical terminology book that I've ever studied, but it's certainly not the worst. I noticed a few errors, but nothing that would be a life or death situation if used incorrectly. Overall, I think it tackles the basics that most medical professionals need to understand and elaborates a bit on some of the more difficult terms and the etymology behind them.
