Two Journeys
In August 2000, I began two journeys—the adoption of children
into our family and the writing of this textbook. Although very different, these two journeys shared a common thread of lan-
guage and communication.
The first journey was the adoption of two beautiful children, Minh and Lien (ages
8 and 9), who joined our family from an orphanage in Vietnam in 2001. This jour-ney of adoption involved completing much paperwork and research, learning a new language and culture, and traveling to an exotic land.
For many months prior to the adoption, nearly everything I did on a day-to-

day basis was, in some way, affected by the decision to adopt. I purchased Viet-
namese language study aids and began to spend an hour each day studying. A
Vietnamese-American friend tutored me, teaching me Vietnamese phrases and laughing with me when I unknowingly said something I didn’t intend to say. My studies were rewarded, however, when I was able to communicate with my new daughters, even as they quickly learned to speak English.
The second journey was the process of writing this textbook. This journey also
involved paperwork and research, but I did not need to learn a new language or culture. Because of my many years of experience in the healthcare field, I already understood medical language and culture.
I did, however, need to determine the best way to convey that knowledge to
each student who studies this textbook. And so, as I wrote, I drew on my own ef-forts and struggles to learn a new language during the adoption process. Those insights helped me identify with students who are learning medical language for the first time and enabled me to include textbook features that would support and strengthen students’ efforts as they learned.
As I write this page in late 2012, I am ever-mindful of the many children in
need of help, food, and homes.

Dive Into Something Different
N
o new medical terminology book has touched the lives of so many people as profoundly
as Medical Language. We credit the astounding success of the award-winning first edition to
its special ability to meet the needs of students and instructors. This new edition builds on our
commitment to excellence, and so we have once again challenged our development team (see
page xvii) to critique every feature, every page, every word—all to help enhance the learning
and teaching process. The result has been an integration of features that “you,” our customer,
have asked for and will not find in other books.
CHAPTER FORMAT
Each medical specialty chapter follows a consistent organization designed for student success.
