Too much information by John Patrick Ryan (Sacramento, CA USA)  4 Stars
March 19, 2009
I intended to buy this for my NCLEX review but it was so loaded with information (though not a bad thing) that I do not know how to use it. I ended up buying a more simplified review book that i was able to use. it really is intended for RNs, especially if you are working in a hospital already, not for review.

A MUST HAVE!!! by G (bay area, ca) 5 Stars
September 09, 2008
I am currently using this book for clinicals and it is great. It easy to understand and it has many pictures, which is helpful if you are a visual person. Everything is laid out in an organized fashion (Description --> Causes --> Complications --> Assessment --> Diagnostics --> Treatment --> Nsg Diagnosis --> Nursing Interventions). Invaluable resource for nursing students and nurses!

an easy read for diseases! by R. Ray (Costa Mesa, CA) 5 Stars
May 12, 2007
This book has allowed me to review a disease with ease. Only the needed information is in this handy book. All of the dieases are alphabetized for a quick reference. I particularly find helpful the disease definition, the brief pathophysiology of the disease and the signs and syptoms. With the help of this book, my nurse processing paper work is completed much faster! This book should be recommended for all nursing courses and nurses as well!
