the book was in good shape, I thought the shipping time was a little slow. I did pay extra for it to be shipped quicker and it still took almost 2 weeks to get.

The book is greatly written in a simple understandable form, yet when you do the review questions you encounter a big problem. Some of the provided answers in the CD are wrong and could really throw you off if you dont know your stuff, that really made me mad because it makes you doubt yourself and you have to go back to the book to find the correct answers.

I bought this book/cd for an online class. Facts are facts and that is what I needed it for. But the CD and Book do not always corelate the same information, for instance in the book it states that there are 10 essential amino acids but on the CD flashcards it says there are 9. If I guessed 9 on my test - I would be wrong.
Also, the opinions of the author tend to be written as fact and there are some that I definitely disagree with from personal experience. Example: the author states that B12 deficiency is rare - well not in my world. I have Celiac Disease (1 of 133 americans have it) and pernicious anemia or b12 deficiency is quite common.
To summarize: if you need the book for a class - it is informative - but disregard the opinions and watch out for mistakes on the CD.

As a pre-nursing instructor, I find this text very easy to follow and love the nursing process approach it takes. It is a wonderful reference for ongoing clinical practice. Excellent instructor disk and student reference CD. Highly recommend this text book.
