If you have ADHD, and are a visual and auditory learn like me THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU. This book gives has pictures (wish they were colored in) that correspond to the disease and they have pnuemonics to go along with them. "Cold and clammy, give'em some candy" for hypoglycemic and then they show them shivering. I used the book after my 2nd test and when I tried to picture the disease I closed my eyes and saw a guy shivering with sweaty palms and BAM remembered the saying. Now thats just for 1 of the 100 disease processes they made pictures for but it helps. I would get this along with Mosby Pharmacology flip book as well as the Memory Notebook of Nursing vol 1 and 2 all of which have these pictures and quirky sayings on them to help you remember what is what. Ya its a lot of money but whats cheaper re-doing a semster or buying a book that lets you past the test the first time.

Very easy to use. Helpful and organized. However I thought the cards would go into very specific detail of many diseases. Not so. Review of each system and what can go wrong in each but not details about many common diseases
