If you must study research, this is a good tool to use

Nursing research is a rather dry topic, and therefore difficult to study unless you're really interested. This book (and the accompanying CD-ROM)make understanding all the jargon and concepts more palatable and user-friendly.

Great Layout

This provides everything a nursing student wanting to do look up research that's evidence based. It's easy to read and follow.

"Review of the Literature" chapter really weak

The book is well laid out and easy to follow but the "Review of the Literature" section was not helpful. A large part of evidence-based practice is learning how to search the research databases and analyzing the articles retreived. This is glossed over at best. The search examples within the text were way too basic (Who searches on just the word "coping" ?) This section is in desperate need of a research librarian's input.
