Great resource for health problems

I find this book to be an outstanding resource for consulting on health problems. It has an excellent index which makes it easy to access information on a variety of health issues, including symptoms and treatment. It is written in terms easily understood, and it has been of great use to me on many occasions.

Page Turner

This set of books, especially the accompanying wookbook, is a nursing manual without parallel. It is truly a page turner that kept my interest from anatomy to zoology. And who's the genius that came up with those muliple choice? Bravo.

A must read!

I found this book to be exactly what I needed for introductory nursing care of adults. The diagrams were good and the study guide was truly amazing. If you need to care for adults then buy this book.

A top-notch adult nursing care text book!

Until the publication of this book, there really was no reliable book about the introductory nursing care of adults out there. This book and the accompanying study guide (great multiple choice) make learning fun.
