Rating: - Study Guide Maternity and Women's Health Care
This is a great product. I received it promptly when our college bookstore was continually out of stock. It made the difference for me when I started my classes and had my materials, and other students did not. Great transaction.
Rating:  - Not very helpful
I've found this book to be a very difficult read. The chapters are long and boring and it's very difficult to find information on a specific topic by using the glossary. I've found it more helpful to go online and research topics than to use this OB text. Avoid this book if you can.
Rating:  - nursing student
The book was really good at reviewing the chapters in the text. It didn't really help me for the tests because our test questions were complex and difficult and I felt like the questions in this book were not. If you are having a hard time grasping the content in the text then this book might help but if you feel like you understand the text then this book my be unnecessary.
