This review is from: Henke's Med-Math: Dosage Calculation, Preparation and Administration (Buxhholz, Henke's Med-Math) (Paperback)

This book is helping me a lot in my fundamental class. Infact When I was studying chapter 3 of this book which is on conversion,it flushed out my fears I had in having difficulty in conversion and fill my spirit with confidence that I will be the mistress on my calculation. Infact this book is made for everyone, both novies and mathematicians. It gives novies confidence that there is nothing to fear in mathematics. It shows you how to use your application.
I believed that all nursing student need to have a copy of this book. It worth the price.
Thanks
Ify.

While the book is indeed amazing, it is only a small shadow of the person. I am a current student of Sue Buchholz and would recommend this book to anyone who wanted a little extra help with dosage calculation, and I would recommend the teacher to anyone who had the chance to learn from her.
