I actually rented this book for a BSN course, and have to say that now I wish I would have purchased instead of renting. I plan to move forward in pursuit of a MSN degree and I feel this book would continue to be a resource. It's a good basic reference book that provides numerous research samples and critiques to aid the student in their own critique.

I love nursing, I hate research. This book did a good job of explaining the statistics in a useful, if still boring way.
