I had no choose but to purchase this book for school. That being said, I did find it to be helpful and knowledgeable. Interesting information on the Maternity parts.

conscise and nice
As a nursing student I found this book to be great in the way it is conscise and to the point. This book does not include all the fluff that other books do which is nice. It only gives you the facts of important things you need to know for nursing and especially what will be on the NCLEX exam. I have had Mrs. Leifer as a nursing instructor and she lectures straight from her book and she is a reviewer for the NCLEX so she knows what to include.
