This is a very good Nursing Text Book. Purchased for a class I have found that the passages are concise and the information is accurate. I have a tendency to wander when authors are long-winded and provide too much information. This book has been able to hold my attention because it breaks passages up into sensible portions. Well done Pearson!

The information was pertinent to the subject matter. The information is easy to understand. Vocabulary boxes are helpful especially if you don't have previous medical experience.

Very helpful textbook. I have a B in my class. I find it easier to do some things alone rather having to work them all out in class's.

Yes this was the exact book that I needed for class and it was a lot cheaper than the bookstore at my college.

This is a very good, thorough book. I'm so glad my class used this book.
