As a vocabulary builder and as an effective approach to reaching a better understanding of the critical roles Greek and Latin played in the development of English, Dr. Richard Krill's Greek and Latin in English Today is a superb text/audio package that features an incremental approach to building English vocabulary.

The book also includes lucid explanations of the metric system, Roman numerals, and other classification systems and exercises aimed at reinforcing each chapter's lesson. A section deals with Greek and Latin in the development of specialized nomenclature in science, medicine, law, and the arts.

Two audiocassettes provide the proper pronunciation of the main Greek and Latin words and phrases and their English derivatives.
