- THES Feb 2010 " My Math Lab is really good. I especially like the common clinical measurements & physiological measurement questions because I can really relate them to practice. I even take the book to practice with me because it is such an easy read for me as I have never worked in healthcare before. I feel like I have learnt a lot from the book."-Wayne Fleming Nursing Student Manchester Metropolitan University"
