LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!!!! - By: V. Lehkyj, 27 Sep 2008 
After reading the reviews on Amazon about this book, I decided to use a long overdue voucher to buy it. As new 2nd year nursing student, it helps to have some books that you can return to again & again. After only having this book for 2 weeks, it's already proving it's worth. This & the Marsden should be the recommended buys for any student!
As one of the previous reviewers stated, the only downside - the size & weight!! At least I'm building muscles whilst learning!!!

This book is big engough to squish spidersin their tracks, act as a makeshift door stop & provide a great stand for the televisions as well as many other uses that student nurses moving away from home might need as well as being one of the best resource text books you could buy!! Covers almost every disease as well as its management & pharmacology & general information on body systems..you wont be carry this to uni unless you do weights but no the less its essential!

Nearly There...... - By: Christopher Brown, 02 May 2007 
I am now coming to the end of my pre-regestration course & it has been a tough but rewarding three years. I purchased this book at the beginning of my training & I am so glad I did so. This has been a bible for most of my nursing theory & practically based modules. It was brilliant during the first two years & very comprehensive. In third year this book has still been a good friend, i am on the degree programme & it is perhaps no longer as in-depth as i need, but what one book is at this level? I did however use it to provide the structure & direction of my work & research, the case studiesin particular are very useful when analysing theories & frameworksin order to apply them to real situations.
A solid introduction to the academic aspects of nursing & a superb aid & guide as your knowledge increases.
A relevent Book Pre & Post Registration - By: Cathal Hasson, 22 Mar 2007 
Having used this book as a Student, & Now 4 years post Qualification, I found this publication to be excellent as a study guide, reference for assignments & now as a reference point to refresh my knowledge when need be. I have recommended this book to collegues & have even convinced my Ward manager to purchase this book for the ward refrence library.
I like this book so much, Im ordering the latest edition.
A must have to Students & Qualified nurses.
