The Basics of Graeco-Latin Medical Terminology was written by a pedagogically experienced team of authors, whose primary goal was to offer a smooth and efficient path to the acquisition of medical terminological apparatus for first-semester students.

The textbook is divided into four main sections. The first section of the textbook is a comprehensive Introduction to Medical Terminology. It introduces the students to the Latin alphabet, the proper ecclesiastical pronunciation of Latin which is widespread and applied in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. It is also the section of the textbook that provides an extensive explanation to why Latin and Greek languages are the building stones of medical terminology. 

The second section comprises 13 units – 11 units explain new grammatical, syntactical, and lexical issues, two units (Unit 9 and 13) contain repetitions. Further practice for self-study and feedback is provided by the additional exercises with keys to the exercises in the third section of the textbook. Additional chapters in the third section of the book are Grammatical Charts (Latin & Greek), Latin Numerals, Standard Prescription Phrases, Abbreviations and their Meanings, Names of Chemical Elements – Acids, Oxides, Peroxides, Hydroxides, and Latin and Greek Component Elements of Drug Names. The fourth section contains the Latin-English Dictionary and English-Latin Dictionary.
