Fluids and Electrolytes made Incredibly Easy
I am a mature 1st year student nurse and have been way out of my depth regarding fluid balance and electrolytes. What a breakthrough this book has been! I am a visual learner /hands on, and found the book 'Incredibly Easy' to read AND understand!
The 'cheet sheets' and 'Now I get it' sections are clear (and amusing at times). The quiz at the end of each section helps me monitor how much has sunk in. Got the book on friday, (now tuesday) and I took the book into Uni today - the library is going to order it and at least 12 others from my class - HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!

Essential for all nurses
I work as a nutrition nurse and recommend this book to all the acute sector health care staff I lecture to and work with. It's an essential, but importantly, simple guide that has real value in your everyday work
