I studied this book and the core oncology nursing book (green cover). Both were great, but this book was so good. I passed my OCN studying this book. I recommend using it from front to back, the back really has many very good helpful tips, websites, and overall this is an excellent book for any oncology nurse to have. I truly recommend it to novice oncology nurses.

I'm relatively new to Oncology and am studying for the certification exam. This book is great.... has awesome explanations and is very readable. Questions at the end of each chapter that are relevant with good explanations. I would def recommend this book!~!

This is the best oncology book out there to study by for the OCN. This book is easy to understand and provides good basic knowledge for anybody.

The book is an easy read and goes into depth about all types of cancer. This book was used for my Complex Health class in a BSN program. The test questions after each chapter are very helpful! It is a great starting point for understanding the ends and outs of oncology nursing.

I think this is a wonderful book.So many descrptions ...explanations etc..... I have learned so much ina very short amount of time .
