This book came better than expected. it is really well designed and full of relevent info which I did not know before although it is writenin in an easy way. it is very suitable for class study because each chapter is followed by multiple assignments and excercises. This book is highly recommended as a start for each one going to work in Health informatics field.

The online course I am taking uses this as the basic textbook, and it is on their website for $55. Fortunately Amazon comes through with the best price.

This book is really geared toward those who have little to no experience with computers. For that audience it is probably adequate. However, this could just as easily have been written for rocket scientists instead of healthcare professionals (read nurses). The authors throw in a few pertinent phrases here and there, and gear some of the exercises toward nurses. But there really isn't much that directly pertains to healthcare except for one chapter that is all of 8 pages long and is titled Healthcare Informatics and Information Systems. It, too, has little direct relevance to healthcare.

This book should have annual or biannual revisions, because it really is quite out of date since its publication in 2006. Technology moves too quickly to wait for three years before penning an update.

This is, supposedly, the only text of its type for the healthcare field and it is woefully inadequate.

One can only hope that they started from scratch for the fifth edition to justify the $55 cover price.
