Opis

Lehnes Pharmacology for Nursing Care is a perennial favorite among both students and faculty-in fact, no other nursing pharmacology text has drawn such overwhelmingly positive feedback from students. Its hallmark features include a clear and engaging writing style, use of the drug prototype approach with a strong emphasis on understanding over memorization, and unmatched clinical precision and currency - even the index is meticulously prepared by Rich Lehne himself. The authors one-of-a-kind narrative voice enables him to explain complex material in a way that makes it easy and enjoyable to learn. Lehne was the first nursing pharmacology text to use large and small print to distinguish the need-to-know from the nice-to-know content. The bulleted, end-of-chapter nursing implications help students apply the pharmacology content after they have learned it thoroughly.
