1.0 out of 5 stars EEEWWWW!!!, September 24, 2008

Leigh Miller "LM RN" (Nebraska) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Porter's Pocket Guide to Emergency And Critical Care (Spiral-bound)

I saw a fellow nurse's copy of Porter's and was impressed with the size, easy to read layout and ease of finding information. Needless to say the version I saw was an older edition. What I got was a chunky "pocket book" that is difficult to read and as previously stated has an incorrect EKG. As far as fitting in a pocket, no way, this looks like a preschooler's chunky cardboard book. This is too bad as the older edition that made me want this book was excellent. Definitly getting a refund.
