When I first started teaching it 2 or 3 semesters a year I had the opportunity to review many and this was always my favorite- especially when you started offering the online materials. Even if everything did not apply (I taught at ASN, BSN levels and had my nurse practitioner students use it for their basic review text. However many texts were available for review from 1990 to 2008, I reviewed them. In 2013 I simply went to desertcart and asked for Jarvis's newest book available on this topic When I review a text for course use I pick out the chapters of things I know very well and read them word by word, then peruse the other chapters, though after teaching 29 years I am quite familiar. I was also a Family Nurse Practitioner. Students did not complain about readability and pictures and so on, just how big the assignments were. The whole book is way to much for one course (that's why NP students need a good book for review). And I was pleased with the pain assessment chapter and especially slides. As much as it "pains" me to see in research literature, medical and nursing students are woefully undereducated on pain management' I have stayed somewhat current in pain management by belonging to the American Society for Pain Management Nursing ( and a few other groups like the American Pain Society). A close friend with similar nursing background decided in 1980 to select the most serious problem of our whole profession. We chose undertreatment of pain. We have slowed down somewhat . We plan to continue until we develop dementia or die. I will stop now, As a mostly retired nurse the chance to talk to nursing colleagues is not too common except in the every three month ASPMN meeting. If you are interested we have a website, the St. Louis Chapter of the American Society for Pain Management Nursing. To it's credit the national group has gone from 19 members in the late 1990's to at least five thousand, despite many hurdles posed by the DEA I retired early to take care of two seriously ill parents but I still teach an occasional Health/PE class at local junior college Although there are not a lot of changes in the actual human body I do love the updates on tips and techniques. Your book was very easy for me to do a self-review. It is so good for all the areas I fought for many years ago, evidenced-based assessment and critical thinking . Sorry, I am writing this very late, I think I reversed a paragraph and I do not know how to correct it in this format. Sincerely, Cathy Flasar MSN, APRN Review: Great book! - I usually sell all my books after I'm done using them for a class. This one is a keeper. Detailed description of examination. This book will be useful during my nursing career for sure. A lot of pictures! And the content is written in a fairly simple language that is easy to understand. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,755,519 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #171 in Nursing Assessment #676 in Nursing Assessment & Diagnosis (Books) #1,771 in Medical Education & Training (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (537) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 1.5 x 10.75 inches | | Edition | 6th | | ISBN-10 | 1437701515 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1437701517 | | Item Weight | 4.55 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 880 pages | | Publication date | May 17, 2011 | | Publisher | Saunders | ## Images ![Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 6th Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61gKFnuGhkL.jpg) ![Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 6th Edition - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Hj1Rq64GL.jpg) ![Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 6th Edition - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41DUQXV5yWL.jpg) ![Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 6th Edition - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JForrVZ2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ReviewMyf my Favorite Health Assesssment Textbook *by C***R on February 23, 2014* I have used many editions of this book, I think I started out with 2nd edition, because I taught Physical/Health Assessment for many years.
