Not the best textbook in the world. It's huge and has a ton of information/details in it, but it's not great at explaining diseases in the way a Nursing student might need to understand them (i.e. symptoms, presentations of disease, treatment, etc.). Pathophysiology is obviously very important for Nursing, but this book had too many details and not enough clinical application. Came in great condition on time.
What a shame that this very good textbook is being sold only in soft cover. It would be an excellent reference book to keep but for the cover, which is inadequate for the size of the book and thus makes it awkward to read or keep on a bookshelf and also makes it very much liable to becoming damaged. For this reason alone, this book is not a keeper. I will be returning it and renting instead.
Got it brand new. So happy I was the first to use it and I will make sure its returned the way I found it.
It's really clear
