5.0 out of 5 stars THE BOOK for oncology nurses!, August 9, 2007
This review is from: Core Curriculum for Oncology Nursing, 4th Edition (Paperback)
Although there are many complaints about this book because it is in outline form, it is the best oncology nursing book FILLED with great, very useful information. I bought the book to get me through my first year as a brand new nurse and to assist met in studying to become certified as an oncology nurse. The way the sections are broken down is very helpful. You are able to review one specific section at a time. Outlines, such as this allow the reader to focus on the most important FACTS in a very organized manner.
I am a brand new RN on an adult transplant/oncology floor. Many nurses before me have used this particular book and it came highly recommended to me. After only reading through the first chapter, I understand why this book was so highly recommended.
I GIVE IT a 10/10 and also HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!
