not worth the money
Customer Rating:
Several people in my class have this and thought it was great. All this contains are sketchy outlines of the chapters and a quick review test. For the money the online class that corresponds with this text is a much better value. For me this book was a complete waste of money.
Great Resource! Difference Between A and B for Me!
Customer Rating:
Using Huether and McCance's 3rd edition of Understanding Pathophysiology in my recent Pathophys class, this workbook and study guide was an invaluable resource. The textbook is relatively complete and thorough in its information. Oftentimes I found myself getting lost, missing the forest for the sake of the trees. I could not see the bigger picture of some of the processes that we were studying. I also found that to review and refresh the information that I had read in the book, the "Quick Checks" and the "Did You Understand" sections were not sufficient.
That was where the study guide and workbook came in. It only presents the "must know" information. Oftentimes describing the process in a summary manner, instead of the step-by-step pathways described in the textbook, helped me see what was really going on. Then learning the individual steps of the various cascades and processes no longer seemed like an excercise in memorization, but rather a reinforcing of my understanding. The study guide and workbook uses concise summaries, tables, flowcharts, and practice exams to instill the most important of the information to the reader. The indepth info in the textbook is important, but it is not what is generally tested over. Tests, at least in my class, tend to be over the most important information. This is exactly what this textbook offers, the most important information. I believe that my A in pathophys is owed in large part to this study guide and workbook. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anybody using the corresponding textbook.
