The Practice of Nursing Research with Accompanying Student Review CD-ROM: Conduct, Critique & Utilization [With CDROM]

Burns and Grove's book is an excellent resource for "general" referencing of all that is involved in nursing research.

This text is required for my doctoral level quantitative research course. I have been busy actively learning (actual data analysis & critique). For the first time I feel that research can become a reality. It's too bad this text did not cross my path 10 years ago as the beginning point for previous research courses. The text is not a difficult read. The excerpts from actual research and visuals keep the readers attention. I have not utilized the Evolve web site. At least 4 research texts are on my bookshelf, but this text pulls it all together. If I desire to dig deeper the references are there.

It is very comfortable, understandable, very good for me to study, because this book is well structured and lots of figures.

This book is easy to understand and provides excellent examples to illustrate points.

I am a senior BSN student in West Texas. We have been studying the research process as it applies to the nursing profession. Our text book we used was limited in explanation. I found Burns & Grove to be a life saver when preparing for exams and assignments. Throughout my research course I used several nursing research books as a reference book. None compared to Burns & Grove. It has explanations of the research process, theories, and statistics. You name it, it has it all. I highly recommend this book to all BSN students or anyone interested in nursing research. My only wish is this would have been the assigned text book for my class! This is one nursing book I definitely will be purchasing.
