Delmar book-thumbs up from me!

[Guest guest]

Nika and all,

I had the 1999 version when I studied last year. Having worked only in a retail

setting, I knew nothing about hosptial setting. This book (along with this

study group) assisted me in my passing the exam. The book has the

definitions/explanations of each area of study then a work section along with

many tests in the back to use. The math required for the hospital setting was

daunting at first, but the Delmar book and a finer look that told me it was all

" glorified algebra " helped me. The one thing lacking in the Delmar 1999 version

is material on law. I would give it a thumbs up! I'm sure the newer version

has updated lists of drugs with brand/generic names as well.

Thank you Therese for your opinion.

I have started reading and studying it already and I like it, but

again this is the only book I know so far.

I will be taking a course soon, so time will tell how helpful this

book really is for me.

Thanks again.

NiKa.

Hey Therese I would like to use your post on your opinion of the book

on my study book guide document (need to upgrade and update the

list). If you have any amendments or you do not want me touse it

please email me privately.

Thanks

I always appreciate review comments.
