The product was great. The book took awhile to get to me. I contacted the seller who pointed me to the "rules of shipping" and "the shipping method that I chose" and said that it may take awhile to get to me. The other books I purchased (from other sellers) shipped next day under the same rules and I received them within 2 days. I am not sure if my order was misplaced and corrected when I contacted the seller wondering where my book was, or if it just took that long and was within shipping parameters. Over all the product was of good quality and as described so I wanted to leave positive feedback. I probably will not buy from this seller again on short notice, but I would if I had a month to get the book, or was willing to pay for faster shipping. The seller did respond to my communications in a timely and professional manner.

I am currently studying Nursing Informatics in a Master's Certification Course. I loved this book! It was user friendly and covered a variety of topics. It was very easy to read and understand. Since this is a new specialty in Nursing, most of us are starting at ground zero. This is a great place to start!
