Best place to buy Nursing books?

[beckyboo1, BSN, RN]

Excelsior recommends books to help you with their exams. I was wondering where might be some of the cheapest places to buy them new. (don't really want someone else's highlighting) or used if not marked in?

a few I'm interested in are

Nursing Diagnosis: Application to Clinical Practice

Nursing Process: A Critical Thinking Approach

Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing

TIA!

I highly recommend www.half.com - you can find some great new and used books on there, + you can see feedback that buyers have left sellers, exc.

I actually sell a lot of my old nursing books that I dont need on half.com - its a good way to make some extra money after spending so much on the books!

Hello, I bought a few books at www.discountmedicalbooks.com. THey offer free UPS shipping if you spend over $100 as well an extra discount for paying by check. They are new books. EVen by paying by check I had the books in less than a week. I mailed the check Thursday and by Weds. the books were here. Good luck!

I agree with half.com or any other auction site.

Amazon is good, too. Not the new books, but their used books. I've gotten some great deals there.

Definately AMAZON. I used them for most of my books and saved a mint. I just bought used books, no need to buy new ones, plus all the highlighting was done for me :) lol
