Awful organization. Lacks depth. Good exemplars, but not comprehensively supported. Often introduces theories inconsistently, with bias, and sometimes with little to no consistent depth or utilitarian comprehensiveness.

All I can say is nursing theory is hard.

This is a really great textbook and I will refer back to it over and over again as I am studying for my PhD. This is a great resources and valuable reference :)
