Recenzje

"The primary purpose is to provide exam or ward or practice review of clinically relevant knowledge. ... The intended audience is medical, nursing, and nurse practitioner students, but the book could be helpful for physician assistant students as well. As we all are lifetime learners, this book is helpful for practitioners in these areas as well for exam preparation, including recertification." (Joseph R. Hageman, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2017)
