Customer Reviews

Fast shipper

the book was in excellent condition. Shipped quicker than estimated time frame. Responded promptly to my inquires. Definitely would buy from this seller again.

Great Study Guide!

Other publishers should take a look at this study guide. It's very in depth, covers almost every topic discussed in the book. When I was unable to read all the material, I read the answers to the questions at the end of each chapter. It helped me focus in what really mattered. My grades improved a letter grade after using this study guide. I would consider this guide mandatory to survive the course.

Great study tool!

I used this book along with the textbook and ACED the test!

Nursing Student Review

This is the best book we've had in my RN, BSN program so far. The content is very easy to read. The sentences are kept short and to the point. The content is repeated over and over in different places in the chapters as well as throughout the book, making it easier to remember the main points. The summaries at the end of each chapter really focus on the main points and great for last minute updating. I wish all of our books in nursing school were this good.

easy to understand-makes me glad to have in my references

this is a great review for my nursing classes and career choic
