Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5
1) should you get this used? [Rating: 4 out of 5]
The other students in my class got the next edition, and there are some changes that make this one outdated. However, I am getting by and paid only a fraction for my books of what the other students paid. If you are intellectually resourceful, it may be worth your money to buy this edition used. If you are financially resourceful, it may be worth your time to buy the current edition.2) It is a wonderful textbook for all nursing student and nurses [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Sorry for my English...I'm reading it now and I feel that my understanding of nursing is growing from chapter to chapter. I want say thanks for autors of this book for their greate work. After reading I feel safely when I need care for clients in hospital and I just understand what I have to do and why.3) Perhaps, the book is not horrible and it is just my class [Rating: 3 out of 5]
This book tries so hard to make social and cultural variances seem like scientific fact. Of course, a nursing text should discuss patient care but not as always black and white; it edges on stereotyping at times. Conversely, if physiology is mentioned, the science behind the concept is often ignored. I think this book is based on pseudo-science at times. Perhaps, it is just my class that has confused me because the book, lecture and exams have nothing to do with each other; so, consequently, the book seems less relevant. The procedures in the back of each chapter are helpful.4) Good soruce of information [Rating: 4 out of 5]
This book provides good explanations for the various processes and procedures of nursing. I really like the additional material such as the CD and the website.5) Book Review [Rating: 5 out of 5]
The book was as advertised -- new and unmarked. The CD package had not been opened. I am very satisfied with my purchase and the savings.
