Not necessarily your 'curl up and read a good book,' book, but, it's required reading, has some useful information & explanations.

required text for Nursing Program courses...did not use much

This book is great. It was changed this semester from the book they had last semester and it is a wya better book. The chapters are easy to read and it applies to the nursing major, rather than a normal nutrition book for anyone.

Good book
