Review of Medical-Surgical Nursing Made Incredibly Easy! (Incredibly Easy! Series) (Paperback)

For those who have never utilized the Incrediby Easy series, these books are great for review or to help make concepts less confusing, but are still *no replacement* for your textbook! :)

I purchased this a a quick reference - something to use to review key points for my Med-Surg classes.I found that the information, though all there, was difficult to muddle through. Cartoons of pills and organs smiling and giving helpful hints did nothing for me!My edition did not come with a CD either, so If you really do want this book please check this before you purchase.

If you are looking for a good Med-Surg book to help with reviews, I would highly recommend "Straight A's in Medical Surgical Nursing", ISBN 1582552843 by the same publisher.The information is almost exactly the same, and is easier to read because of a user-friendly layout. (Also comes with a CD, and costs about $10.00 less!)
