4 out of 5 stars great comprehensive text for APNs   October 15, 2007
No matter what type of APN you are, this is a good textbook to review the role of the APN as well as the history of our professions. Easy to read and understand, covers the topics completely.


5 out of 5 stars If you are an Advanced Practice Nurse or student - this is THE book   June 26, 2007
What is a CNS? Well, the other advanced practice nurses are fairly easy to understand - but this book says it all. It has been the most used book (okay, well, besides my Rosen's for emergency care) I own. Dr. Hamric is very well respected and known and the respective authors in the book are nationally known and respected. This is THE book and highly recommended for anyone wanting to know about advanced practice nursing, where we came from, the theory behind what we do and why, issues that are facing us and outcomes and more and more. I've used it for EVERY core content class and see myself using it even when I'm practicing. I'm glad that our CNS professor had us purchase this book over any other role book. It really is an excellent resource.

We are using this book in my grad class. Helpful in understanding the CNS versus NP roles but later on it gets redundant and not very interesting. I know that lots of the information in it will show up on boards so I am keeping it. Just remember to keep a cup of coffee near when you are reading.

As nursing textbooks go, this one is a keeper. The amount of information in this book is incredible, especially the Internet site information. The only thing preventing it from being a 5 star book is the overall presentation. The writing style is very dry and somewhat redundant. This is a required text for my graduate program so I have to read it but I'm keeping it for future reference.
