Very good book for nurses. Love because, I'm a union member and it helps with understanding laws, policies and politics of nursing.

Bought it for school. It was interesting in parts and had practical information in it as to how our government works.

Bought for class. Good overall information, but like most textbooks a bit behind the curve for timeliness.

rented for class - book is more interesting than most text on policy that I've read for nursing school.

Book was suppose to be a NEW hardback book. Corners were bent and didn't appear to be new.

How did this become a textbook for formulating public policy? Very slanted

Purchased for a class. Not really light reading for any other reason.

Hard to follow at times and keep interest on the subject at hand
