"I am now coming to the end of my pre-regestration course and it has been a tough but rewarding three years. I purchased this book at the beginning of my training and I am so glad I did so. This has been a bible for most of my nursing theory and practically based modules. It was brilliant during the first two years and very comprehensive. In third year this book has still been a good friend, i am on the degree programme and it is perhaps no longer as in-depth as i need, but what book is at this level? I did however use it to provide the structure and direction of my work and research, the case studies in particular are very useful when analysing theories and frameworks in order to apply them to real situations.

A solid introduction to the academic aspects of nursing and a superb aid and guide as your knowledge increases. "

"Having used this book as a Student, and Now 4 years post Qualification, I found this publication to be excellent as a study guide, reference for assignments and now as a reference point to refresh my knowledge when need be. I have recommended this book to collegues and 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 and Qualified nurses. "

"This book is FAB. It goes through normal anatomy and physiology (yet in a more basic and clearer way than most bilogy books) for all body systems. It then goes on to discuss common disorders of the system giving you detailed infomation on how to care for that patient whilst also looking at the pathophysiology of that disorder. I would recommend it to any student within the adult branch ***********"
