Have you used this??

I haven't used any of the 'Dummies' books, but have used the 'Incredibly Easy' ones. I have one for Pharm, Charting, Nclex. They have helped me a lot.

I've used the Dummies books, but not for school. I really don't like the way they're set up, and they really do treat you like you're stupid. I think they're filled with a lot of fluff.

I've heard the Incredibly Easy books are wonderful, though!

I have incredibly easy EKG interpretation and Pathophysiology and both are great

I got the Antomy and Physiology for Dummies at the library and didn't find it usefull at all. Its not set up very well I didn't think and doesn't offer much information.

I have gotten a LOT of use out of my Anatomy Coloring book made my Princeton. It was only $18 and I have really enjoyed it.

I checked A&P for Dummies out of the library too & thought the same. Didn't do much for me at all. I'm not in A&P yet (Summer quarter), but wanted to brush up on a little of it early.

I plan on getting the coloring books though. When I was in college the first time (duh...psychology major...what was I thinking?), a friend of mine was in a BSN program & highly recomended it.

I have the Incredibly Easy! books on A&P, Med Term and just bought the one for Assessment. I love them, and the best thing is that they're written for nurses by nurses so they're pertinent to what we need to know right now. I highly recommend them.

Wow, that kind of sounded like a commercial, didn't it?

Have you tried amazon.com they have a textbook area and sell used books too. Maybe that helps???

I also loved the coloring book.
