I received the book a little later than I wanted, but it was in great shape. I also had to pay additional shipping to the post office because the seller packaged the book wrong, that kind of ticked me off. Oh well, it was a cheap price on the book to begin with!

This book has everything you need to know about pregnancy. It is organized and easy to read and understand. The CD does not have many NCLEX questions but overall it is a very good book.

I had to read this book for a nursing class I took at the University of Michigan. We had 5 weeks in which to read all but a couple of chapters. A lot of the information seemed repetitive. You can get the full text online by registering the code that you scratch off on the inside of the book. I imagine this would be a good book to have on hand to use as a reference. I decided not to keep it, and sold it after the course finished.
