Customer Reviews

Best Nursing Book I was ever required to buy

I have had other nursing books for various reasons, but this was the most complete and thorough and the only one I've kept for reference after graduation. I refer back to it often, even though other editions have been published.

Great book for nursing education!

We used this book for my nursing classes. It was expensive, but we were able to use it through the entire program. Everything is in there! Sure, we had a med-surg book, and something on maternal and child care, but this book was utilized in those courses as well. Even medical dosing is covered. Its not too hard to read, the examples are great, the CD is useful and over all it was worth the cost. I still use mine as a reference.

Excellent

Item is excellent and as described by seller. Slight issue with mailing and seller was very proactive in addressing. Thank you.

Great condition

This book was shipped to me in a good amount of time, didn't take too long. Also, it is in great condition like I expected it to be.

Very, very good. Progressive and easy to follow.

I thought this book was excellent as far as these kinds of books go...I haven't read the entire thing thus far, but it has a great chapter on complementary and alternative medicine, terrific nursing alerts, nice chapter on nursing history. There's a lot here - don't drop it on your foot! These two New Orleans nurses have definitely put a lot of thought into the organization and inclusion of material into this weighty volume! Accompanying CD is nice, but I've been told by other students that the quizzes are far too simplistic compared with the ones their instructors give them. Still, this book would make a great reference for any student or nurse who needed a refresher. I think this would be an excellent first semester text!
