Title: Buy the Application to Clinical Practice Instead
Review: While this is a great REFERENCE book, I would advise all nursing student or even practicing RN's to use Carpenito's complete book titled: Nursing Diagnosis: Application to Clinical Practice. This non-handbook version is much more comprehensive by displaying usages for each diagnosis and common errors in diagnosing. The handbook is convient but too brief on nursing diagnosis usage. Spend the extra $10 and get Carpenito's complete book. It will save you a lot of time writing those care plans:-(. The 8th ed. should be published by 10/99.
