It is a comprehensive but detailed text book with the necessary information organized in a better way so that the reader could get the information he wanted without any fuss. It really offers an evidence-based, holistic approach to mental health nursing in a streamlined format that explores nursing diagnoses for both physiological and psychological disorders.
The price is very good and better than other book stores. I strongly recommend this vendor.
