Dosage Calculations September 30, 2008
This book was a good review source for me, being that I'm going back to nursing school. My textbooks from years back are outdated. Good purchase.
Easy to follow July 3, 2008
It's fairly easy to follow along and learn on your own with this book. That's good considering we had to do that for our class. The instructors never taught anything to us, we had to do chapters on our own and turn in the work, then take a test on it. Thankfully it was very descriptive and gave many examples so it was easier to follow and do on my own.

I bought this book to help me prepare for Nursing and the calculations I would need to be able to do next semester. I found this text to be very helpful. It breaks down math into simple steps and provides adequate opportunities to practice new skills.
 Student BSN June 1, 2008
If you are a nursing student this is a must have book. It includes dosage calculations and other important nursing math. Great to have if you are a beginner or if your math needs refreshing.
