The book is just what I expected, heavy and too much info. The supplemental info is far better. I love the online material..that is worth the book in GOLD! My teachers have found discrepancies within the book.Update: this book has literally fallen to pieces! I'm disgusted at how cheap the material is. I've used it for 2 semesters and literally they should be ashamed of themselves for this cheap material. I can't believe this book for $150!!!! Unreal! My entire class has had to tape it back together!

When I was in nursing school the first time back in 2000-2002, we had an earlier version of this book. The earlier version was a lot easier to read than this one. This one is very big and heavy. Was obscenely expensive. The text print is too small. They have made the pages way too busy with boxes and other stuff. You add all that together and it makes a miserable textbook. I would return it right now if I didn't have more chapters to read for the RNR program I am in. Needless to say, I will definitely NOT be keeping this book for future reference. I will look for a better one.

Nice book with great illustrations. Well written and easy to understand. I appreciate being able to purchase and rent books from to avoid the over priced books at the campus store. rentals makes things much easier on the pocket book since going to college is very expensive in itself, so appreciate this service. I also find that purchasing used book is great. Even purchasing used study guides is very helpful since sometimes the notes and highlighting that the previous owner may have left behind also helps during studying and reading. It is like having a study partner. Happy studying!I review items in hopes that my review will help you to make an informed decision on your purchase as I also rely heavily on customer reviews when making a purchase on . If this has helped you in any way, please take a moment to click the "YES" button and let me know. Thanks so much! Have a great day and happy shopping!

Book contradicts itself in many locations. Babbles in others. Out of 24 students in my cohort, more than 18 books have fallen completely apart in less than a year. Because I ordered it through instead of waiting for my campus bookstore to get the books in, I cannot get a replacement. For the money the book should be able to hold together.

Wow. Another MUST have. This is not just another book, its a course. It is short, concise, and to the point, but extremely in depth without fluff. This brings critical thinking to life, tying core nursing content from many different aspects together. Interactive tutorials and Case studies that are interactive, verifying learning is included with Evolve. This is perfect. This is the best medical surgical nursing teaching and reference tool I have ever owned. Next of course is 2) Brunner & Suddarth's, 3) Smith Duel & Marin, and then 4) Taylor's Clinical Nursing Skills. But again, Sharon L. Lewis is by far the best!!!!!!!!!!

Exellent book , affordable price. Links to online teaching tools and videos priceless. On line help and phone help from publisher very good. Teaching methods have come into the 21 st century.

This book defintley has great material but it is WAY to much information. It almost becomes redundant, I wish they will clearly highlight, Patho, Nursing Management & Interventions. Sometimes I read multiple pages & realized the book is just repeating the same material & concepts over and over. The front cover of my book has also been torn off. This company should have did a better job with a more solid cover.

If you are going to buy one book for your nursing school, may this one be the one. It's expensive, but really worth it. It's a behemoth of a book, hardcover and heavy- but for it's price, it's a bargain. It's over 1000 pages. This book was the primary textbook for both my med-surg and advanced med-surg class. I did not find the online access helpful. I read the chapters that were assigned to me at least twice before an exam and got A- on both my med-surg and advanced med-surg courses. Some people complained that the exams were impossible, but you just have to think as you read the book. It's really well-organized, and this will be the one book I will not sell back. It will help me for years to come, since I will be seeking employment in the medical-surgical unit.
