A compact disc containging 265 questions which follow the National Council Licensing Examination-RN (NCLEX-RN) blueprint has been added to enhance the student's ability to test via a computer. Each question contains coding designations according to the NCLEX blueprint. The book is divided into chapters according to body systems and includes chapters on pharmacology, end-of-life issues, emergency nursing, and alternative therapy; a 100-question final examination; and the compact disc containing 265 questions. In the Answers and Rationales sections of the chapters, an explanation for the correct answer as well as the incorrect distracters is provided. - p. 1.
