Rating: - It's a BIG help!
The study guide is excellent. The text book has a huge amount of information, and trying to do all the reading for class is almost impossible. The study guide breaks it down into easy-to-follow segments that are short and have the most important information readily available. The study questions are great. It wasn't required to purchase for my class, but it was the best investment I've made for the course.

Rating: - Works for Me, too!!!

It was required for my first semester in nursing school and I found myself using it even then to write care plans and find rationales and now that I'm in the med-surg semester I use it even more to refer to pathophysiology of patients conditions, look for tips on what to watch for in every patient that could indicate possible complications, etc. It includes a brief overview of the anatomy ...
