This text is very well organized. Every chapter starts with an overview of the relevant physiological concepts. They present a Prototypical drug for each class and then compare/contrast the other drugs in that class against the prototype. The amount of information contained in the book is overwhelming (due to the nature of the subject), but the easy to understand layout and consistent use of tables and figures make it much easier to digest. The explanations of how the drugs work are clearly written. The only drawback is that it doesn't contain a glossary, so I need to keep a medical dictionary nearby while studying.

This book has many great features that make understanding the drugs much easier. I love the fact that there is always drugs that are selected as a prototype from each drug category and has a detailed discussion such as its Side effects, available forms, its action and such...i love the layout it is well organized easing the level of understanding

This book has been a great help as I didn't have separate pharm course in my AAS Nursing curriculum. We studied drugs by ourselves instead. The book gives you physiology of body system and pathophysiology of some diseases at the beginning of each chapter. Prototype drugs are described in detail, drugs closely related to prototype and drugs different from prototype are given later. The authors give you little MEMORY CHIPs for each prototype medication, which is great.

I actually read and enjoyed this book. Finally a text book that was worth the money! I loved the design and page layout; it made it interesting and easier to read than your standard medical text. The authors have a knack for taking difficult concepts, and explaining the material so that you will will be able to understand it. Good charts and graphics throughout the book. Get the study guide too.

Okay, maybe I'm a giant nerd, but I really like this book. It's one of the first text books that I actually enjoy reading. It has great explanations, and charts for when you don't want too much info.

This book is great for Pharmacology in Nursing. I learn more from this book than I do than any other Pharmacology Nursing book there is out there. Dianne makes it so easy to learn Pharmacology and want to learn and in a way you remember it.

This workbook was very helpful while taking Pharmacology. It is a great review for each chapter.

considering my book never came and amazon cancelled it....not a good experience. I tried contacting the seller but no response.
