Question
I have been looking for a book that gives the meaning of biology terms. For example biology bio= life ology=study
The problem is I dont really know what to call said book. Can you lead me in the right direction?
P.S. I am not 100% sure on my example which is why I need the book!!
Dear Tabby,
If you're looking for a dictionary of word roots and combining forms for biology, then I have the *perfect* book for you:
http://www.amazon.com/Dictionary-Word-Roots-Combining-Forms/dp/0874840538
I require this book for all my biology students so that they can look up the roots of scientific terms to get their original meanings. You will LOVE this little book. :)
Hope it helps.
Dana
