This book was very straightforward and helped me to learn the basics of Pharmocology nursing. It made everything so easy and very clear. I recommend this book for any nursing student!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not for nurses
I didn't really like this book, the book was just to wordy, get the Davis Drug Guide for good general information. this book is a waste of money for those not going into pharmachology
