This product came in plastic wrap, so I knew it was brand new. It was shipped on time.

I enjoy reading this book, a lot more so than other nursing books. It's a great resource for learning about Peds, also the workbook (separate) is an essential!

I bought this book for my wife who is a paediatric nurse. It was a prescribed textbook for the university and hospital based course. It is very comprehensive resource for the nursing professional who seeks to know all there is to know about their patients.
If there is one criticism (and it is a minor one) it is that this textbook is American-centric. Many of the measurements reflect this, and it would be nice if some of them included the metric equivalent.
We have yet to utilise the CD that came with the book although judging by the contents (a list is included in the book as well as extensive "links"), it will be an oft-referenced item in our library.

Brand new at a used price value. New in plastic wrap, no markings like it was described by seller. Very satisfied with purchase

My purchase, as usual, was without any complications. I received the book I ordered in what seemed like record time...actually, I didn't even have to wait the proposed time period to get my order in the mail...even with standard ground shipping. Thank you for your prompt attention and especially for the affordable price!!!

I'm a nursing student in a RN program. This book was one of our required books. The problem with this book is that it either needs a good editor, or just call it a reference book. I hated this book not because it is incomplete or because it does not have enough information, but that it has too much information. As a student in a nursing program, I feel that the best textbooks are those that quickly and concisely give you the information that you need to learn. This tome takes too long to say what it wants to say, includes information that is unnecessary, and is basically overwhelming.
