Purchased for a class, not because I wanted to read it. Became so angry at the quotes and ways it talked down about ADN graduates as uneducated idiots that I didn't even read if I didn't have to. I have been an ADN graduate working as a nurse for nearly 30 years and I have never killed anyone or made some horrible mistake that caused a death. They act like that is inevitable with the lack of education that we have without a BSN. Very disappointing.
This book was so insightful and helpful. It was also incredibly interesting to read. The authors are obviously big supporters of the American Nursing Association, which is okay, because I am, too. But there is subtle bias here and there. So yes overall, a great book.
This is a textbook. It doesn't really matter what I think. So far, I don't see anything unique or exciting here. There's nothing wrong with the book either.
It was a very easy book to follow. Has a pulling factor like in a mystery novel. Author's genuinely intended for the book to be educational.
This is exactly how it was described in the ad. Seems to be of decent quality and looks like it will last.
Rarely used this book. It did have some great information.
Got to me in great tine and was in really good condition
needed for class, the right book in great condition
