Best price around for my Patho class materials. Came with the online access code and worked with no issues. Beats my school's bookstore by $45. Thanks !PS: the book itself is pretty thin, easy to read and organized well--thank God, because our instructor requires us to bring it with us to class. ;)
This text was a pretty standard text, built around body systems. Pretty well organized, first talks about the system overall with a basic summary of your A&P (which is super useful having taken A&P nearly 5 years before taking pathophysio class), then breaks off into paragraphs of each disease with sections grouping some disease types together. Good flow within each disease discussing the treatment options, conditions and manifestations, and symptoms. I also liked that it focused on some diseases more than others. Like, you might encounter a disease process that has a paragraph dedicated to it and then one that is more important with maybe one or two pages to it. That is something I liked a lot and found very useful!
Bought this for my girlfriend's nursing class. She says it is the exact book she needed and for significantly less than the book store or any other site. Book also came in amazing condition! highly recommend.
This textbook is a great reference for nursing students or nurses. I saved so much money ordering it through versus the school bookstore. The book was organized around body systems, and was very easy to follow. Learning pathophysiology can be a daunting task, but the book had very easy to understand descriptions, summaries and reminders of basic anatomy that you may have forgotten since taking that class. The book honed in on some diseases that might be encountered more often than others, and gave very useful descriptions. It was a big help, and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone in the healthcare field.
Not the most extensive in regards to listing and naming every disease possible, but a terrific beginner's guide (includes physiology and anatomy as well as relating specific diseases to their physiological malfunction!) PLUS very easy to read.
Not all information is correct, and it is not enough to get your through an intensive program. It is, however, worth it if you are just looking to brush up on information at a very minimal level.
It is the book I needed for my college course this summer. I was in great condition and included the original access code for the website.
I use it for my Pathophysiology class. It's a good book. I like it. Most topics are simplified.
