Immunity and COVID-19 Vaccines appendix features topics of current interest, including infectious disease, cancer treatments, medical technologies, and pharmacology Review: The best medical book I have EVER purchased - This book far exceeds expectations. It truly makes learning easy. It's an outstanding workbook. ( Includes answers to everything ) I don't write reviews - but, couldn't help myself on this one. ) My only complaint is the pages are thin ( Bible page thin ) if you're a highlighting person - regular highlighters WILL bleed through. There is a lot and I do mean a lot of information in this little gem. Not to mention all of the goodies you get with the computer from using the book code. I have 3 different medical terminology book. They were dry and boring and I just couldn't focus and study from them. I am self teaching for medical coding. This book is a Godsend. Now, I can't wait to get home from work and study. No kidding... This book is like a soap opera.... It draws you in and you can't wait for the next study session. I work 4 pm to midnight. I study for two hours after I get home ..... So, it's important to have something that holds my attention. This book does it. I thank the entire team that it took to write this book and publish it. I guarantee 100% that you will be well satisfied if you order this book. I give it a 5 on the rating scale...IF I could give it a 10 - I would. If you are a highlighting person ..... I would definitely suggest the spiral bound version. It's just a little bit more expensive - bet well worth that little bit extra. Review: A must buy - Amazing book with even better online resources. The online resources come with the book and has many test and quizzes in addition to the questions present in the book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #43,036 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #6 in Medical Dictionaries #11 in Medical Dictionaries & Terminology (Books) #15 in General (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 320 Reviews | ## Images ![Medical Terminology: A Short Course - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dbhfCapDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best medical book I have EVER purchased *by B***S on February 10, 2026* This book far exceeds expectations.
