1.0 out of 5 stars
Poorly written. Difficult to follow,
This review is from: Introduction to Community-Based Nursing (Hunt, Introduction to Community-Based Nursing) (Paperback)
I found this book very difficult to follow. Most of my classmates said the same thing. I would not recommend this book. I do not feel that it was well written. I usually enjoy reading my science and nursing textbooks, but this fell quite short.
4.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Introduction to Community-Based Nursing (Paperback)
This is actually a book that I look forward to reading. The information in this edition is very similar to the newer one, I would recommend it if you are a typical student and on a tight budget. Make sure to okay it with your instructor, mine was fine with it and I saved a lot of money. Really great book easy to use and a lot of helpful information on community health nursing.
