5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand, terrific illustrations/pictures
This is a reference book I come back to again and again. The text is written in a no-nonsense straight forward manner. The technical terms are all defined in an easy to use glossary at the beginning of each chapter. This book describes every treatment step in detail in easy to understand language. Its the first book I turn to when dealing with matern-child treatment.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hate this book
Have you ever needed to look up a word for extra clarification, flipped back to the glossary and found what you were looking for? Can't do that with this book - no glossary. Have you ever read textbooks that had bolded words to make them easier to find? McKinney never did. They italisized their words making them HARDER to find. It's the wordiest book I've ever read...

This review is from: Maternal-Child Nursing, 1e (Hardcover)
Have you ever needed to look up a word for extra clarification, flipped back to the glossary and found what you were looking for? Can't do that with this book - no glossary. Have you ever read textbooks that had bolded words to make them easier to find? McKinney never did. They italisized their words making them HARDER to find. It's the wordiest book I've ever read and I have 3 degrees. It's overpriced and should be banned from college bookstores.

New update - every one of us - in my entire class had to buy this book - of course. And ALL, I repeat ALL of them fell apart after a month. The binding broke and the pages fell out. What a cheaply made expensive piece of junk!
