Excellent
Just what I needed for my master's course, and it was less expensive than the university bookstore!

Ouch
If I didn't need it for a class...I would never have bought this.
It hurts my soft-science brain to read.

Nursing Research
Excellent advanced book on professional nursing research theory and methodology. Excellent graphics and charts integrated into the body of the text.

Denise, RN
Required text for master science in nursing, professor states will use as "reference." Lots of info packed in, lots of current websites/info listed. Fairly easy to follow format.

Good Basic Reference
This text is a good basic reference for the beginning nurse researcher. It has very clear explanations of the research process and applies them nicely to the clinical setting.
