Twelve clinical case histories in English with specific language study Clinically Speaking is an original and useful way to improve your English. Twelve authentic clinical situations, realistically portrayed by American and British actors will provide the listening practice you need to progress. Carefully graded language study will enable you to acquire the specific vocabulary of clinical medicine, practise your pronunciation and test your understanding. As you listen to each situation develop, you will begin to think in English and try to make the diagnosis at the same time as the physicians. The case histories are all fully transcribed and annotated in the accompanying book. Because each situation is a self-contained unit, representing about 10 minutes of listening, you can work at your own speed, when and where you want. Designed by doctors and language experts, Clinically Speaking is ideal for busy clinicians, whether you are coming back to the language after a break in your study or coming to English for the first time.
