Average Rating: 
Rating:  - This class is a big waste of time, you will see
You will hate this course and book as much as I did; promise! It's required so you will take it and in the end you will say, just another busy work class that is not going to help me on Hesi or NCLEX.
Who ever wrote this book eithor does not have a life or was paid a heck of a lot of money; probably both.
Rating:  - Need a reference book to understand the reference book
Shipping and all that was great. Recieved very quickly. I do not like the book. It doesn't read well and is confusing at times. It leaves you hanging. It will make a statement about something and not give any explanation.
