Okay, maybe it's just because our nursing director helped write the book, but we all love it. The questions at the end of chapter are theory based questions that are very similar to the NCLEX. Our school has a 98% pass rate on the NCLEX and we owe a lot of it to the practice in answering questions in this book and the study guide for this book. I would highly recommend this book even if you don't need it for your school. At least get it from the library for the questions.

The information in the book is scattered throughout, making studying difficult. Critical thinking was not encouraged and nursing diagnosis was not included in each discussion area.I would not recommend this book.

This book was actually a required text for my course. So far I am finding it really helpful in learning the basics of nursing such as taking Blood Pressures. However, as I am from New Zealand and the book is published in America, some of the terminology is different. Also, the illustrations in the book are old and are the same ones that were used in earlier editions - I felt as if more modern illustrations could have been included although the illustrations serve their purpose. Overall, a fairly good book.

This was a very helpful tool in my Nursing Foundations class. I learned so much better by answering the questions in this manual. Some of the questions even ended up on my tests and quizzes. So, if you're buying the textbook, I highly recommend the study guide with it!

I found that this book was very helpful in my quest to become a nurse. There were many pictures and charts throughout the book to make the information easier to retain. Another good quality to this book was that there were directions to performing a particular nursing skill and rationales to why a step was necessary. Overall I thought that this was an easy book to read and understand.

I'm not much of an online shopper and was very hesitant about buying this book being listed as 'used', but the price was AWESOME so I decided to give it a try! If this book was 'used'...I would like to see a 'new' one!! The book is in PERFECT condition. I will definitely shop here again!

I didn't even know this book was available until the end of semester in the class I had the book for. I would definitely say that anyone purchasing the Fundamentals textbook purchase this book! It was amazing to use to study for exams.

My order was shipped quickly and the packaging was very nice. The contents were exactly as stated.

I was very impressed with the delivery time and the condition of the book! It has really helped me think about the material for my class and has helped me study!

The book is required for my class but I would recommend it anyway. It is written in a very understandable manner with lots of pictures.
