This is a comprehensive medical and scientific dictionary for the 21st century. New vocabulary is constantly being introduced into fast moving medico-scientific disciplines such as genomics, clinical trials, medico-legal, health economics and pharmacovigilance.

The dictionary contains more than 28,000 main entries and many subentries: (a) medical terms used outside the medical community, including colloquial usage; (b) technical medical terms in current use in clinical practice and research; (c) new technical terms in the fields of medicine, medical research and basic scientific research applied to medicine, defined in recent years. The breadth of subjects covered and the accessibility of the definitions make it user-friendly for the educated general public, while the level of detail and state-of-the-art coverage of recent terminology make it a unique tool for professionals.




Researching Marginalized Groups


Book Description

This edited collection explores issues that arise when researching "hard-to-reach" groups and those who remain socially excluded and marginalized in society, such as access, the use of gatekeepers, ethical dilemmas, "voice," and how such research contributes to issues of inclusion and social justice. The book uses a wide range of empirical and theoretical approaches to examine the difficulties, dilemmas and complexities surrounding research methodologies with particular groups. It emphasizes the importance of national and international perspectives in such discussions, and suggests innovative methodological procedures.

English Pronunciation: A Manual to Understand and Communicate Effectively


Book Description

La confección de este Manual se propone introducir la enseñanza y el aprendizaje formal de la pronunciación dentro de las asignaturas de lengua inglesa de la Universidad de Cantabria. Se pretende que el alumnado adquiera una serie de conocimientos esenciales sobre fonética para así mejorar de manera sustancial las destrezas orales (speaking y listening) y de forma global su competencia lingüística en inglés. Este conocimiento básico de la lengua, particularmente a la hora de comunicar(se) de forma apropiada, será abordado a través de una serie de contenidos que recogen de forma concisa y práctica los principales elementos sobre pronunciación, incluyendo las múltiples diferencias de sonidos entre el inglés y el español. La aplicación de este Manual no se restringe a los estudios especializados (ej. al Grado de Estudios Ingleses o la Mención en Lengua Extranjera del Grado de Magisterio) sino que es transversal a cualquier asignatura que se imparta en inglés y resulta de interés para la inmersión lingüística como complemento a la instrucción académica dentro del aula.
