Dosage calculations

This book was HIGHLY recommended to me by my mentor, an US Navy OR nurse and I would like to do the same for other people. Might I add he wouldn't give me his book and I understand why! I am in nursing school (BSN) and the book on their list wasn't helpful in my opinion. The dimensional analysis method of problem solving on page 31 is the golden ticket. I got an A+ on my med math exam. What I most like about the book is the way it breaks it down for you to see, step by step. In the title it says "... a simplified approach", they weren't joking! lol It is GREAT for anyone who has a math fear, or just needs to brush up on those old math skills. This book will never leave my home library. Regarding the two 3.5 disks,(not CD) I haven't used it because I am a MAC user. To be honest, I don't see me using it especially since I have to dig out my old PC just to use it. So if your are looking for someone to convince you to get this book. let me be the one... BUY IT NOW. :-)

Not bad for practice questions...

This was a required buy on my nursing school list. We were required to go through it and practice as many questions as humanly possible. I like that there are plenty of questions worked through step by step as well as many to do on your own. Very helpful for learning dosage calculations!
