5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resourse

This book was the required textbook for my Nursing Research course and I found the book to be very good. Yes, the material can be dry, but overall I think the authors do an excellent job explaining the concepts. The provide definitions and make the key terms easy to find in each chapter. I think that Nursing Research is a different type of class than many of the other nursing courses, this book makes the material clear.

If you are taking a research class you can also go online to the Evolve website and take practice exams for each chapter which is great to check if you really have learned the material.

The book is technical in nature and will not appeal to a very wide audience other than those like me taking a college class. For those who critique research articles this is a book that you would want by your side.

Not the most interesting read, but made it easier to understand Nursing Research concepts. I made an A on my last test after studying religiously from this book. Has great examples. The size of the books is nice, not as clunky and huge as most nursing school textbooks. The chapters are broken down very simply. The pages are gloss and accept standard highlighter ink very well. The length of the chapters are good most not more than 20 pages I believe.

3.0 out of 5 stars Keep it if you plan on doing nursing research. Else sell it off right after you're done.
Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2013

First off, the author(s) is/are in the process of writing 2 additional chapters for the next edition.

The textbook reads much like the principle author speaks.

There are some inconsistencies due to the order of sections that may cause some confusion. A lot of the content is repeated and re-elaborated which may also cause confusion. Anyone with a high school education and a decent vocabulary will comprehend the words fine; a science and/or math background helps. The multiplication of words is somewhat irritating; I could write the book much shorter and my notes for each chapter was at max 7 pages.

If this is a required textbook for you, I would not recommend reading it completely because it takes up a lot of time for things you may already know. I stopped completely reading after a few chapters and only read small sections I didn't know well, and I still got my A grade. Certainly not worth the money for me (~$35-45 would have been a more appropriate price, in my opinion) who doesn't plan on going into research.

If research is going to be a decent chunck of your life, then this foundation/reference is something you will want to keep.

Very difficult to read, and as someone else said, just too many citations that made it difficult to read. I found it very disorganized at times. I frequently had to look in the back of the book for definitions, it seemed like the text would not give a clear, concise definition of anything.
