Great book!
This book has all of the math that is required for me to know throughout my nursing program and is very helpful!

I would make improvements on this one.
This book didn't thrill me and it confused me even further when trying to learnmy med math. First, I hate the size of the book, .... mostly because it was difficult to handle and the print is very small.It would be much easier to use larger.I was frustrated with math to start and this just made me more frustrated..

Best nursing math book every!
This is the best book for ALL nurses; those working in the field and those who are aspiring to be nurses. I have used it extensively for my drug doseage calculation reviews as an LPN and now using it as a review in math for my entrance exam for the RN program. I originally purchased it back in the late 1980s and it is still just as useful today. Don't hesitate to buy it!!!

good book
this is a good book.a lot of questions, just wish it didn't focus on basic math so much.

If you need help with your math, this is the book!
This book will help you brush up on your basic match skills.It's pretty easy to understand, too.Overall, for the price and especially with free shipping, it's a good deal. ... Read more

Product Description
The traditional pathophysiology book is written for the medical student. Nursing and allied health students (usually at the sophomore level) have simply had to make-do with cumbersome (1500 to 1600 page) books, that assume considerably more science background than the typical allied health studenthas acquired.The Nowak book is not only briefer (at 700 pages) but is organized in a manner that brings the principles of pathophysiology to the forefront.The authors focus on the relatively few patterns of disease, rather than asking students to memorize extensive catalogs of specific diseases. This conceptual approach is more suited to the allied health student than the disease centered approach featured in the major competitors. ... Read more

not happy
The condition of this book was stated as good, but when I got the book there are so many highlighted areas and penned areas in the book, it makes it difficult to read.I would have like to know ahead of time that the book had been that marked up.

Gets the job done!
This book is a really dry read, to say the least, but it gets the job done.... Physically, the book is in perfect condition. The only thing I really don't like about this text is that there is no glossary!

review of book
I bought this book for a nursing class, and didn't want to purchase it from the school. It was much cheaper through Amazon than the school bookstore.
The book is layed out well and fairly easy to read. ... Read more
