Thorough and well-written

This is a very heavy book. Don't plan on carting it around in a backpack. Other than that, it is very useful and well written.
The inside back cover lists of all the 2005-06 NANDA "Nsg Dx" (nursing diagnoses). Section I - explains how to write a nursing dx and care plan. Section II - alphabetical list of symptoms, problems, med dx, psych dx & clinical states. This section offers idea for an individualized nsg dx. Section III - (the bulk of the book)lists nursing dx care plans according to NANDA I. These are alphabetical. This section also contains all of the outcomes and interventions.
I would recommend this book as one to keep at home or in the nursing station itself. It you plan on carrying it around, I would recommend -
Nurse's Pocket Guide: Diagnoses, Prioritized Interventions, and Rationales (Nurses Pocket Guide) (Paperback) by Doenges, Moorhouse, and Murr (ISBN-13: 978-0803618572).
