not nearly as good as the 3rd edition, Feb 6 2007
By Miriam Mott-smith "scarletta" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Nutrition Essentials for Nursing Practice (Paperback)
Having used the third edition on many an occasion, i was dismayed to find the 5th edition so inferior---no nutritional assessment tools are included at all, and of course then, no discussion whatever of the validity and reliability of various screening methods. No discussion of HOW to do a proper 24 hour diet recall, just the listing of it in the assessment process. i was further disappointed to read the statement that babies should be breastfed until the age of one year: the AAP recommendation reads "for AT LEAST one year."

Not my Favorite, Nov 8 2009

This review is from: Nutrition Essentials for Nursing Practice (Paperback)
This was a required supplement text in nursing school and I was eager to review it as I previously worked as a registered dietitian. I was disappointed in this book because I felt it really dumbed-down the nutritional information needed by professionals. I realize that the target audience for this book is nurses and not registered dietitians however I believe this book really missed the mark on giving useful medication nutritional therapy advice. Today many nurses find themselves in the position to provide some form of nutritional counseling therefore, nurses need to have better training on medical nutritional therapy. I know that the American Dietetic Association offers better books of much better quality, presentation, and usefulness. This book was also boring which was unfortunate because nutrition is a dynamic and interesting field of study.

RN required reading..., Feb 4 2011

Well, this book is on my "required text" list but there is no mention of its use anywhere in the Syllabus now that they've given us one. However, the book arrived promptly and in great shape! I find it interesting enough to keep...even if Tri-C doesn't make us future RN's use it. Hey, at least I didn't pay the college book costs! Go Amazon.
