Mosby's Physical Examination Handbook sixth edition I love this book. I carry it to class every time I go. It sum up the head to toe assessment nicely. I'm glad I purchase it. I only use the big book for reference. | ||
Handbook This is VERY worthwhile. I have all three and they work well together, but this is a must have. | ||
Helpful Obviously not as good as the full edition text, but also has a few shortcomings you might not expect. For example the Tanner scale for males includes the G scale photos but not the P scale. The female is fully included, and one could deduce the P from this, however, that requires an extra flip. There are other similar shortcomings, but overall it beats carrying the 50 pound text around. | ||
Exactly what I ordered I received this item with no problems. It was exactly what I needed. Glad I made the purchase online, saved myself 10 dollars! | ||
Helpful I found this book to be very useful. I am currently in nursing school and this book is a great tool to guide assessments. My professor said that this was even helpful when she was in Nurse Practitioner school. | ||
