 I would make improvements on this one. April 1, 2009

This book didn't thrill me and it confused me even further when trying to learn my med math. First, I hate the size of the book, .... mostly because it was difficult to handle and the print is very small. It would be much easier to use larger. I was frustrated with math to start and this just made me more frustrated..
 Best nursing math book every! February 9, 2009

This is the best book for ALL nurses; those working in the field and those who are aspiring to be nurses. I have used it extensively for my drug doseage calculation reviews as an LPN and now using it as a review in math for my entrance exam for the RN program. I originally purchased it back in the late 1980s and it is still just as useful today. Don't hesitate to buy it!!!

This book will help you brush up on your basic match skills. It's pretty easy to understand, too. Overall, for the price and especially with free shipping, it's a good deal.
