I am in a graduate program for ACNP, and this book is the one chosen for my course. I have never really had an opinion one way or another about the textbook chosen for any of my classes before, but this one is so horrible, I just had to say something about it for anyone considering utilizing this textbook.

It is absolutely full of grammatical errors (i.e. see the section on Beta-Blockers and self-contradictions (i.e. use of Benadryl in pregnancy), and I have noticed it omits a lot of relevant information about some medications. In addition, a lot of space is wasted on ridiculous photographs with captions such as "Pregnant Woman" and "Elderly Couple," as though we have never seen an example of either of those things before and require a visual.

Between the shoddy editing job and condescending photos, I have a hard time trusting much of what this textbook has to offer. In this profession, accurate, resourceful references should be utilized on-the-job and this book won't do that for me. I can't wait for the end of this semester so I can take this book off my shelf and replace it with one that meets those professional standards!

I am a BSN nursing student and this second edition of Gutierrez is awesome. Even better than the first. Although the writing style is still a little dry, the text is logically arranged and punctuated by case studies and meaningful tables. The pathophysiology included in the chapters helps me to understand not only the disease process but the reasons certain drugs are used. I thought the title might be a problem but my instructors says it makes no difference what the title is because the book contains information for both inpatient and outpatient settings. Keep up the good work Gutierrez. My classmates are looking forward to the next edition.
