Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Geared toward the nursing-pharmacology student audience and presented in a readable and clinically applicable style, the text implements a prototype approach and effective pedagogy. Chapters begin with objectives, feature critical thinking scenarios, and end with review questions. Colour concept maps and drug summary tables enhance the text. Three additional features are 'Lifespan Alert' -- within 'Memory Chip'); 'Focus on Research'; and, a Web alert offering relevant links. Content includes strengthened drug coverage -- with Canadian drugs; increased physiology; and expanded pathophysiology. For more information, visit http://connection.LWW.com/go/aschenbrenner.

This text is very well organized. Every chapter starts with an overview of the relevant physiological concepts. They present a Prototypical drug for each class and then compare/contrast the other drugs in that class against the prototype. The amount of information contained in the book is overwhelming (due to the nature of the subject), but the easy to understand layout and consistent use of tables and figures make it much easier to digest. The explanations of how the drugs work are clearly written. The only drawback is that it doesn't contain a glossary, so I need to keep a medical dictionary nearby while studying.

This book is great for Pharmacology in Nursing. I learn more from this book than I do than any other Pharmacology Nursing book there is out there. Dianne makes it so easy to learn Pharmacology and want to learn and in a way you remember it.
