Reviews


Service
I've bought this book from "Better world books" almost a month ago ,and I still have not received it. Customer service doesn't respond to my e-mail. Service is terrible.

It helped me then....It helps me now!
At first, being a very green student in terms of learning nursing care, the very size of this book was intimidating. Being in an ADN-RN program, the learning if fast-paced so we often had a lot of chapters to read in a short amount of time. Though I wasn't a straight A student, I still found this book to be very helpful in aiding my understanding of the material, perhaps more now when I review it than at the time when I first read it. My favorite part is the illustrated procedure pages with step by step instructions. It covers everything from properly mitering a bed to IV therapy and so much more. I think our instructors chose well in picking this one for their first semester students. It's a great intro to learning nursing and a great review book too. I'm in my second semester and review it often while studying Med Surg.

Potter & Perry Is The Best Textbook I've Ever Used
I found this book to be very comprehensive and easy to read. I also love the illustrations. The skills are very easy to follow.

Much good information but just too big to carry daily
This is the textbook we use for the beginning nursing class. It provides much information for the nursing student but it is just too big to carry to school everyday. I know the authors have seperate clinical skills book. They just try to make more money from the students. They should just seperate the this book into two sections-theory and skills. This will be much helpful for the students to handle it.

This book is a mystery to me~
I had purchased this book for my introductory nursing course. I found it very boring to read and difficult to follow. It should be written by Perry Mason!
However, I do feel that in later years, it is a good reference and is good for assessing patients.
