This review is from: Luckmann's Core Principles and Practice of Medical-Surgical Nursing, 1e (Hardcover)

This book is a wonderful source of information. I am a senior nuring student in my final semester, and we have been using this book for three semesters now. There are areas that are sometimes confusing to read, but on the whole, it gives pretty good assessment criteria, nursing diagnoses and interventions.
