My book is a brain teaser and knowledge enhancer of medical terminology. My name is Annie Clark-Macklin, and I’ve been a nurse over thirty years. Something I decided I’d do from age . I’ve worked in all forms of medicine. I used word puzzles for patients as a form of activity and to pass time during rehabilitation and recovery. They really enjoyed them, especially those medically related. I knew then that one day I’d create puzzles.

This is an intermediate/advanced level textbook directed toward students who are interested in learning the necessary medical terminology and cultural sensitivity to successfully care for the U.S. Spanish-speaking community in medical contexts. This textbook is divided into 13 chapters that include medical vocabulary, dialogues between medical professionals and patients, case studies, readings on health issues that affect the Latino community, readings to deepen students’ cultural competence while working with Latino patients, and interactive and realistic activities to provide students the tools they need to effectively care for this population. This textbook is unique in the market in its cultural perspective focused on the diversity and complexity of the Latino community living in the United States. The book addresses particular health concerns that affect the Hispanic population such as specific illnesses (diabetes type 2, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, HIV/AIDS, obesity, and liver disease) as well as barriers to accessing healthcare and, at the same time, the book highlights the complexity and diversity among this population. Most medical Spanish textbooks on the market only offer lists of words and common phrases to provide basic tools of communication to healthcare workers. Intermediate Medical Spanish: A Healthcare Workers' Guide for Communicating With the Latino Patient, by contrast, is directed to learners with intermediate and advanced levels of Spanish who wish to broaden their use of the target language in medical contexts. Some of the topics covered in the textbook are: children’s health, maternal and reproductive health, diet and nutrition, mental health, and physical therapy. The book includes hundreds of vocabulary exercises and critical thinking activities pertaining to cultural awareness. The book also includes a key for some of the vocabulary exercises, a Spanish-English glossary, and a list of common medical procedures

Un método completo de aprendizaje de inglés compuesto por tres libros y seis CD-ROM, dos por cada nivel, que cubren los niveles de aprendizaje básico, intermedio y avanzado. El curso está diseñado para que el usuario lleve a cabo un aprendizaje fácil y gradual, aumentando de nivel progresivamente hasta una completa inmersión lingüística. Desde el libro 1, con las explicaciones en castellano y algunos textos en inglés reproduciendo situaciones cotidianas y otras en las que ya se introduce el vocabulario especializado básico, hasta el libro 3, que está escrito por completo en inglés y cubre las necesidades lingüísticas más avanzadas del profesional sanitario (información y vocabulario muy específicos, redacción de artículos científicos, etc.) Los tres libros, con un diseño muy didáctico y atractivo a todo color, están estructurados en doce unidades que van acompañadas de un test de progreso, glosario, compendio gramatical, transcripción de las locuciones de los CD-ROM y soluciones a todos los ejercicios y actividades planteados en ellos. Cada unidad está organizada en una serie de apartados, correspondientes a los distintos aspectos de la lengua (situación, Reading, listening, gramar, etc.), que incluyen numerosas actividades prácticas y permiten adquirir y ejercitar las destrezas necesarias para el aprendizaje de la lengua. Los seis CD-ROM interactivos están diseñados para potenciar la compresión oral y la comunicación efectiva (actividades de listening, ejercicios de pronunciación con la posibilidad de grabación, etc.), con una navegación muy intuitiva que permite seleccionar de un menú principal la unidad que se desea trabajar y una vez que se accede a ésta, la actividad que se va a realizar. Los CD-ROM incluyen distintos tipos de ejercicios y actividades didácticas que resultan de realización sencilla y amena (campos de selección, drag & lock, check box.), refuerzan el aprendizaje de los distintos niveles de la lengua y complementan lo aprendido en los libros.
