Customer Reviews

Pediatric Nursing

This book is great when it comes to the topic of Pediatric nursing. It is easy to read and understand. In addition, it has great test questions at the end of each chapter. On the other hand, the cd-rom that comes with the book is not helpful, in fact, it is confusing. All in all, this book is a blessing and it is worth the money.

Lippincott Review Series are the Best

I've tried a lot of NCLEX Reviewer and I would recommend the Lippincott Review Series as an excellent reviewer for those of you who wanted to study for the NCLEX exam. The way it is presented makes you understand most nursing concept even the difficult ones becomes easier. After using this books you could answer most review questions even those from other NCLEX review books.
