This completely revised edition now includes the most current terminology -- straight from Taber's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary, 20th edition. This unique text helps your students learn medical terminology from a "classics" approach and includes references to Greek and Latin mythology. In addition, many new illustrations reinforce concepts and highlight various etymological notes.
