Wong's Ped book review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The book I ordered came very quickly, was tightly wrapped, and was clean without any damages from transportation or previous use. The book had no writing or highlighting in it and included the CD as promised.
One of the best nursing texts this student has encountered so far ...

I've been through a lot of textbooks on my journey to and through nursing school, and Wong's Essentials is, without doubt, one of the very best! -- Thorough, concise, up to date ... I'm planing on keeping my copy around as a reference even after I've passed the NCLEX. I wish that I could say the same about most of the other nursing texts I've been assigned thus far.
WONG'S ESSENTIALS OF PEDS
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Great book! I like the format. It is an "easy read" next to other text books. Very clear and concise. I had no problem find the information I needed for my PBL's (problem based learning) in this book. I have not used the EXCURSIONS program, but am anxious to use it. In glancing through the workbook, the computer program is set up like a hospital. You are given patients and must determine their treatment/care. The workbook has sections for you to work through. This is not a requirement for my program, but I think it will be an asset.
