The fourth edition of The Greek and Latin Roots of English approaches the study of Latin and Greek thematically: vocabulary is organized into various topics, including politics and government, psychology, medicine and the biological sciences, literature, ancient culture, and religion and philosophy. Each chapter of the text concludes with expanded notes, vocabulary, and exercises to help students learn the pleasures (and pitfalls) of language study.
