Word Power is a text designed for courses that teach terms commonly found in the fields of medicine and allied health. The book's linguistic approach focuses on the analysis of these terms which are derived largely from Greek and Latin roots. It is a nice alternative to rote memorization, because it helps the student understand the origin of the words they will use or come across everyday in their profession. Word Power also touches on some history of the medical language where medical terms, for instance, have entered the lexicon in non-scientific ways. Finally, Word Power will help the student translate Latin anatomical nomenclature, serving both as an aid to memory and as an aid to studying anatomy.
