Description
This text emphasizes understanding over memorization to effectively present the “big picture” through the use of drug prototypes, large
and small print, and special foundational chapters that cover principles related to each body system. At the end of each chapter, a summary
of major nursing implications also helps you apply the material to real-world situations. The accompanying companion CD-ROM features
audio and printable key points that you can download to a CD or MP3 player. The CD-ROM also features 700 NCLEX® examination-style multiple-choice
review questions, animations depicting drug mechanisms and effects, flash cards, and numerous electronic calculators.
