Book Review: An Introduction to Spanish for Health Care Workers
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far the best book in it's field. It is very well organized and presents grammar points in a subtle yet clear manner. The vocabulary is perfect. The compact discs are very clear and accurate. The only negative comment I would have is that it is sad that this book now costs so much, as compared with the original edition. An accompanying workbook would be helpful.
Summary of An Introduction to Spanish for Health Care Workers: Communication and Culture (Second Edition)
For health care providers who wish to learn Spanish to effectively communicate with patients, this book offers an excellent first course in the language. It is a classroom text that uses readings, exercises, and interactive activities to integrate the Spanish medical vocabulary, grammar, and colloquial terms that nurses, doctors, dentists and medical technicians most need. Rich cultural notes explain Hispanic customs and communication styles. This second edition provides an expanded lexicon, a more concise, graphic presentation of structure, added communicative activities, and a workbook section to consolidate learning and promote writing skills. Also included with the book is a 72-minute CD audio program integrated with each of the lessons, which develops listening skills and guides pronounciation.Spanish Books
