3.0 out of 5 stars Driving me nuts
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2011

I bought this book as a reference for the RNC because it was recommended. I think I am getting a lot of good information from it, but it's kind of driving me insane at the same time.

Setting aside the fact that it repeats itself quite a bit and uses a lot of statistics that are also redundant, I feel like this book was not very well edited at all. I have come across several examples (per chapter!) of misspelled words, wrong tenses, confusing phrasing, incomplete sentences, offset type, etc. I also found that, although I'm sure this wasn't written just for the RNC test, there are several topics the ncc website suggested to review, which are also pretty basic perinatal issues, which are either not covered, poorly covered or maybe just badly indexed. Like GBS, for one. Or HSV.

I'm almost amused by how many typos I have found. Or I would have been, had it not started to happen in the test section of the book which I'm trying to use to gauge how well I understand the information!

Anyway, I'm planning to keep using it but I think I will look for some supplemental reading material before I take the test.

1.0 out of 5 stars A disappointment
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2009

This book was a real disappointment for me. I bought it as a reference. It has a poor index; I do not usually find any of the common terms I am searching in it. The book is a fine example of what happens when nurses become too educated and concentrate on theory more than actual patient care. Do not get this book if you need a reference for the nursing care and procedures for childbirth in any form.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not searchable
Reviewed in Spain on January 11, 2013
Verified Purchase
This book is nearly useless to me in e-format because the search functions within it are minimal. I have used other Kindle books and as I write exam questions, searching throughout a book is crucial for cross-referencing and information gathering. I'm very disappointed that it's too late to return it!
