I'm currently using this book for my CNA class and I love it. The way this book is written makes it very easy to read and understand. Everything was explain clearly with words that I understand. The key terms and other medical term in this book is explain well, I looked up the words in my dictionary and the definition is not as easy to understand as the book. There's practice test after each chapter which I enjoy doing to see how well I do on each chapter. There's answers to the test in the back of the book so you can correct yourself. I'm not the kind that likes to study and don't study well. I'm also not the smart type, but if I can do it with this book, so can you.

I am finding it so mush interesting and is well written with a lot of explanation, organized in a way that you can remember easier what you read.For CNA preparation i think is wonderful to get the best preparation for the exam. Thanks!
