本書的編寫始終堅持語言（language）與語言運用（the use of language）在客觀上分不開的基本理念，即語言學習不應該只是停留在語言知識本身，而應與大學知識學習融為一體。在教學實踐中，只有兼顧兩者，使其相輔相成，才能有助於更有效地同步學習相關知識和目標語言（target language）—英語。 本書具有4個基本創新點：①更加完善的知識切入點，貼近醫學生；②新穎的體例設計，助力學生更有效地同步學習知識和語言；③獨特的互動式課堂練習設計（Text-based & Video-based Learning Activities），即：為課文和視頻同步而搭建的一系列「互動式平台」，便於學生將知識學習和語言學習有機融合；④完美的視、聽、說、讀、寫自然交叉結合，提高學生課堂上的專註力和能動性。
