5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this book!
Reviewed in the United States on 3 February 2016

This is by far one of my favorite nursing textbooks. I like how organized it is. Whatever you don't understand in the text, there is a chart to break it down and make it better to comprehend. Also, the workbook is a GREAT companion to the textbook and helps students pass the exam. To be comfortable about passing the exam, register the book online on Evolve and do the critical thinking and NCLEX questions for each chapter. You will for sure pass the exam because everything ties and works together. Pure awesomeness!

May help some, but I ended up not even using this book. It was optional for my class. I sold it to someone else. It's not the books fault, I just thought I would need help in the class. I didn't

4.0 out of 5 stars Book is great for its info-had to do a lot of additional resource studying-I PASSED!
Reviewed in the United States on 10 July 2014

This book was required for my PEDs class. It is very detailed, specific, and has lots of writing, charts, etc. If you're familiar with nursing books, you will recognize 'Lippincott's' writing style and understand what I mean. There is a lot of information in this book, but I still had to do some additional research & resources to clarify some things and get better visuals. I PASSED the class, but I don't think it was because of this book, necessarily. The book on its own is an excellent book, but, PEDs is a challenging nursing concept and you just have to stay on track.
