"Written for adult and family nurse practitioner students, the book can be used by nurse practitioners to refresh practice guidelines. I like this review book because of the number of questions and their similarity to the certification exam questions. The rationale for the answers at the end of the chapter contributes further to readers' knowledge. The guidelines and practices are up-to-date with current reference."
