Amazing!! Good condition. Comes with online textbook also. Just peel off the grey area and that's your code. Wish it was hardcover because it's flappy with all the pages have to be careful. Came bent a bit but hardly noticeable

My class found this text very biased. Ethnic groups stereotyped in the religious and cultural chapters specifically. African Americans eat "Soul Food" and Hispanics eat "Rice & Beans" was too narrow-minded for our diverse group. Would rather see real nursing skills promoted like conducting a proper food history rather than these assumptions. The chapter on Food Pyramid versus My Plate could've been clearer if they'd gone with the Canadian version. Percentages, ratios, food choices within the groups is not clear for educating patients. Overall, an adequate textbook for the subject.

Nice nutrition book, every thing is laid out in a proper order and is easy to read and understand. It is for my nursing nutrition class, so I had to buy it, but its not bad for a school required text.

Great text. easy to read. Provides lots of images, graphs and statistical data to support the information provided. This is one text I will likely utilizing in my post nursing school life.

Fine book. Matches the full text except there are NO PAGE NUMBERS. The flow bar offers a "location" but it does not correlate with the full text!!!

Wish I didnt have to buy it, but it came fast and it was cheaper than it was in the bookstore. Honestly I've never opened it though, maybe I'll use it in the last two semesters of my nursing program...

Item arrived as described and on time! I have found having a hard copy of this text extremely helpful as opposed to the e-text that was provided to me.

The product arrived quickly, in perfect condition. Exactly as described. I am very happy with this purchase.
