4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource, especially for certification review...,

This review is from: Nursing Care of Children & Adolescents With Cancer (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
Very in-depth information, especially on specific diseases (the beginning of each chapter gives a case study). More comprehensive than APON's core curriculum. Not a whole lot of info on specific chemo drugs (side effects, administration), just a chart. A must have for peds oncology.
