I Wasn't Strong Like This When I Started Out - True Stories of Becoming a Nurse
I Wasn't Strong Like This When I Started Out - True Stories of Becoming a Nurse

Review:Great, short nursing vignettes that make this a quick and easy read when you only have a short amount of time. Reminds me of the Chicken Soup Series...as there are short nursing stories that engage the reader and then can easily be put down. Purchased as a gift for a newly greaduated nurse...and it was well received and appreciated. Read more

World Without Cancer; The Story of Vitamin B17

Review:I have read the first half of this book, discussing the science of cancer therapy. It is very informative, with lots of historical information, individual case studies (though clinically simplified) and many citations, which could be followed up on if one had the time. The second half of the book deals with the politics of cancer therapy, which I may or may not read. Read more

An Evidence-Based Guide to Planning Care - Nursing Diagnosis Handbook

Review:The NANDA is located on the inside cover and first page on the paper version. The Kindle version is missing the entire second half of NANDA!!! Cross referencing is impossible. Page numbers are "locations"; this book does NOT have 10,000+ pages. I rarely used this book in the first semester of my nursing program but it was required. Now I'm debating if I should just go ahead and spend the money on the hard version also since I will be using this for 20 page care plans with concept mapping. ... Read more

Review:First Semester Nursing student. I have got to say this book was great. It explained material better than the instructor. The instructor broke the book into 3 tests within 1 month and I have got to say I am very grateful for the detailed information in this book. I finished with 2 A's(100's) and 1 B (87.) I would highly recommend this book for all first semester nursing students. Read more
