Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

STOP MEMORISING. START DECODING.There are more than forty thousand terms in active veterinary use. No flashcard deck is long enough, and no memory is good enough. This book teaches something different.Veterinary terms are built from a small stock of parts. Learn the parts and the rules for assembling them, and you stop memorising terms altogether - you work them out instead, including terms you have never seen before. By the end of Chapter 2 you will take apart words that looked impossible on page one.WHAT'S INSIDE- 1,700+ TERMS taught across 28 chapters - every body system, plus equine, cattle, sheep, goat, pig, poultry, avian, reptile and small-exotic vocabulary- 568 PRACTICE QUESTIONS with a complete, fully worked answer key- 6 REAL CLINICAL DOCUMENTS - a consultation record, treatment sheet, laboratory report, anaesthesia chart, surgical report and discharge sheet - translated line by line- 275 ABBREVIATIONS decoded, including a dedicated guide to the dangerous look-alikes that cause real errors in practice- A 1,047-ENTRY GLOSSARY, a complete word-parts reference, and a reverse dictionary that answers the harder question: "I know what I want to say - what is the word for it?"- PRONUNCIATION BUILT INTO THE PAGE - a plain respelling system applied to every difficult term, so you can say it out loud with confidenceNO ONLINE ACCESS CODE REQUIREDEverything is in the book. No expiring codes, no companion website, no audio files to download. Buy it used, read it offline, keep it for years - it still works.WRITTEN FOR PEOPLE LEARNING ON THEIR OWNFor veterinary and vet tech students, veterinary assistants and nurses, pre-vet undergraduates, animal science students, and anyone starting work in a practice who needs to read the paperwork on day one.Cumulative reviews every few chapters interrupt the forgetting rather than leaving it to chance. Four recurring boxes appear throughout - Break It Down, Sound It Out, Don't Mix These Up, and In the Clinic - so you always know where you are and what each page is asking of you.The book opens with a real patient record you cannot yet read. By Chapter 23 you translate every line of it. That distance is what this book is for.
