Customer Reviews

Great Book!!

This book is easy to read and understand. I highly encourage all nursing students to get this book. It explains all you need to know before you go into the hospital setting for Women's Health. The nurses were even amazed at how much I know as a student! Definitely a must buy!

this is the text book- but get the small companion book

This is the text book for OB It is so long and detailed.... but the clinical companion to this book is excellent. As well as the maternal new born nursing from prentice hall reviews and rationales. those two books explain to you exactly what you need to know for your class! seriously!

Made class easier

My lecturer for this class was terrible. Luckily, this book tells you everything you need to know to practice and to answer patient questions, and it tells it in a readable, no-nonsense format. An excellent resource, and a book you'll want to keep after you're done with the class if you ever plan on practicing OB again.

Wonderful for an OB nursing student!

This book has become one of my favorite nursing textbooks that I know I will use far after my OB rotation is through. It is easy to read and full of really pertinent information. I know feel like I could deliver a baby or talk any woman though her prenatal care and pregnancy concerns. This is a really great book and I am happy that it was included in my textbook library.
