《21世纪高等医学英语系列教材》问世已经近10年了。随着人类文明的不断发展、人类社会对医疗需求标准的不断提高，医学和医疗技术的日新月异之变化有目共睹。修订这部我国历史上第一套兼顾医学英语读说听写诸方面技能提高的教材，势在必行。
修订遵循两条原则：
第一是时代性。所谓时代性体现在理念、内容和教学手段等诸方面。理念也就是修订的主导思想和落脚点——整体医疗观。因为整体医疗观是世界各国对现代医疗的共同、客观、科学、全面的认识。它强调人体与环境、社会、心理、情感等诸方面的和谐一致，是保证高水平生活质量的必由之路，也自然是培养新时代合格医生的新标准。为此，修订版依据此原则对教材内容进行重大改动，读者使用教材后会有所体验。时代性在教学手段上的表现是将原来《医学英语听与说》分册改为《医学英语视听说》。科学技术的进步使现代化教学手段逐步成为可能。生动、具体、有趣的影视资料以教学的形式出现，不但可以提高学习效果，也增加了教材使用的途径。它便于教学，也可用于自学。
体现现代科学理念，反映最新医学成果，原声录音图文并茂，可读可听易教易学，工具性强值得保存。
