While a book on any theory for nursing would put me in a coma, this one really does. I don't know why academicians feel a need to use 45 words to say something that could be said in 10. Additionally, most of the time, I have to go back and reread sentences over because they are so convoluted and sound like the authors spent weeks in a thesaurus. Truly intelligent people can break down complex concepts into very understandable explanations. These authors don't fit in that category of intelligence!

It was nice to be able to rent a text book. Sometimes we may only open or use very expensive texts books a couple of times. Then when it is time to re-sale, you may get 1/4 of what you paid for it back. I loved that I was able to get it immediately on my kindle, as I forgot to get this one! Will certainly be using this option more often!

I wish they include more theories related to health promotion and prevention for other specialty nurses. only one chapter is applicable to my specialty

This is a required textbook for a class. Most of it is clearly written. Good theory book but outside application in practice will be limited to none unless you are doing research.

this book was extremely helpful for my masters level courses. it outlines several middle range theories and describes why they are useful to nursing practice.

this is one of the best books I have used for graduate work and middle range nursing theories. Most of all, the best price I have found.

I had to get this for nursing school. Very cerebral and hard to understand. i will not be keeping this as part of my library.

Easy to read and understand and went great with our grad school course. It wasn't difficult to follow and a great resource
