I LOVE this book. It gives you detailed as well as concise, bulleted information. There is so much to remember with pharmacology, and this book makes it so much more manageable. I have many pharmacology texts, but I keep going back to this one. My school text is very comprehensive and it is impossible to remember so much of the information. At times it is also difficult to determine what is important to study and what isn't, especially if you are unfamiliar with the material--and presented with a HUGE textbook to sort through. (Sometimes this is the hardest part of studying.) This book takes away a lot of that anxiety. I highly recommend this book for nursing studies. I just wish the publisher would update it (2004), although I have found very little outdated info in it.
