Brunner & Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing 14th Edition

This book was required for my class except they did mention ed. 13 instead, however, I decided to get the 14th edition b/c the price was the same for a new 13th edition and 14th edition so why not get the updated info for the same price? As stated, I got a new book and it was received in the plastic wrap and let me tell you these books, emphasis on bookS (it's a bundle, volume 1 & 2), are heavy. I was not expecting the package to be that heavy. Books were clean, never used, no dents, or scratches. I haven't read them yet, but I feel prepared to start reading ahead for this coming semester!! Good luck everyone :)

Had to have for RN school. I did keep this book for reference through my nursing career

The book was in great condition, small wear and tear but nothing major.

Book arrived as described, ordered to have the physical book as my school is using ebooks at the moment. It is a big and heavy book but I already expected that, after all it is a med-surg book. Book arrived in new condition with code unscratched, the book does easily create a crease on the bind of the book hopefully that doesn’t create any issues. So far so good.

I bought this due to the course books being e-books. I'm very much a tactile learner so having a physical book helps. I have read reviews stating that the words used require a search to figure out what they mean. While the complaints are mostly true, I think it is to be expected considering it is a medical book. My only real complaint is how the book is organized which is why I have 4 stars.

No tears, no rips. A few writings and highlights in like 2 or 3 chapters but I found them when I was flipping through the textbook to make sure I didn’t leave any sticky notes. It’s only half of the book btw. It’s just volume 1 so it only has chapters 1-37. Luckily I also had the ebook so it worked out just fine.

First of all, I would like to state the service I was given from Kathy F was above average; however, my problem is still not solved. I have called Amazon customer service 3 times to date and I am still in limbo. I ordered a Nursing book on September 25th (book: Brunner & Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing 14th edition) the book is large and SUPPOSED to come in 2 volumes.I called to ensure that I would receive both volumes upon my original order; due to the fact that the info on the textbook online was LACKING DETAIL in this area. The first person I spoke with stated it would be 1 book and "I did not need to worry about volumes" - she assured me. Fast forward to the arrival of my book - and sure enough I was delivered Volume 2! ok so I called and spoke with an extremely nice lady (Kathy F.) who spent the needed time to look up information on her end that detailed the book did INDEED come in 2 volumes. She ordered the replacement stating she would send a "replacement" that included both volumes. Fast forward again to the arrival of the "replacement" and AGAIN there was ONLY Volume 1 in the package.So here I am with 1 copy of volume 1 and 1 copy of volume 2. AS WELL AS AN EMAIL STATING, I NEED TO RETURN MY FIRST ORDER. I have now received what I paid for. I will not return the first order due to the fact that the "replacement" order did not replace anything it just sent what I didn't originally receive. Ms. Kathy F found that the textbook did indeed include 2 volumes due to the large size of the textbook. I now have vol. 1 and vol. 2 and am not able to return the first order because I would again be without a volume.I no longer want to waste my time with this and would like the customer service to figure this out. I have been a prime member for many years and am a faithful customer of amazon. I have spent a significant amount of time on the phone to fix this problem and it is still not finished - I would like it to be rectified. I would also advise that you look at the feedback on this textbook as I am not the first one to only receive one volume. It clearly states on the cover of the book when received: volume 1 and volume 2. Please let me know how and when this problem will be fixed.I would like to again reiterate the kind and detailed service that Ms. Kathy F gave was great and very appreciated. She should be commentated for the time and customer-specific care she gave me. I would like to state that whoever pulled the original order and “replacement” order was incomplete and I would like this solved for myself and the other students that are attempting to continue to remain customers of Amazon for our textbook needs.Thank you

This is exactly what I need for this upcoming semester. People think its suppose to come in 2 volumes but the volumes are combines causing a massive textbook. I have no complaints. Just glad I don't have lug this thing to class since we're mainly remote. So there is a positive. lol
