I have found this book very useful: Dictionary of Word Roots and Combining Forms
This is a great reference - has a lot of information for such a small book! But I'm surprised to see no one has mentioned Ronald Wilbur Brown's "Composition of Scientific Words", published in 1954. The book was republished in 2000 - it is available through
Amazon.com and I am sure other places. I think this is an absolutely indispensable resource!
