    Read for Fall 2012 NURS 736 Technical Solutions for Knowledge Generation in Health Care.

    Survived Advanced informatics! Book was done well enough and covered all the topics clearly. It was a dry topic to some degree and the text didn’t do much to change that. Useful information though. Cheers!
