About Exploring Medical Language

**2026 Textbook and Academic Authors Association (TAA) McGuffey Longevity Award Winner** Master medical terms on your terms! A combination text/workbook, Exploring Medical Language: A Student-Directed Approach, 12th Edition, provides exercises that make it easy to build an understanding of medical terminology. Organized by body system, medical terms are divided into two categories: 1) Words built from word parts, and 2) Words NOT built from word parts. Fun and engaging exercises help you first learn word parts and then learn how to combine the parts into full medical terms that make sense. The text also comes packaged with paper flashcards.
