Doody's Review
"Overall, this is an excellent, comprehensive, and practical resource that is evidence-based and easy to use. It is essential that this book is within reach of not only student nurses but also novice or more experienced clinical practice nurses in any setting across the healthcare continuum. A must-have for any nurse's library!"

"This is reference for a variety of nursing practice areas. It isn't meant to replace content-specific textbooks (i.e. medical-surgical or pediatric), but it is an easy-to-use source of essential information. Evidence-based updates reflect ever-changing nursing practice."
