This workbook is a great source for practicing nursing dosage calculations. There are tons of problems to solve. However, if you're looking for a book to teach HOW to do the math, this is not for you. It's just a workbook for those who need to practice constantly, as I do. It has gotten me through some important exams, so I recommend it.
".....Key Features: * 1,000 UNIQUE QUESTIONS to practice your dosage calculation knowledge and skills * Complete Chapters on calculating flow rates for INTRAVENOUS INFUSIONS * Entire chapter on calculating PEDIATRIC DOSAGES * COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION tests your competence in each area of dosage calculation....." [from the book of the back cover]
Great Resource!

This book is a must have for any nurse! There are hundreds of practice calculations covering everything from basic oral dosage calculations to advanced intravenous calculations. There is a very basic math review at the beginning, but it is not at all comprehensive and this book is not meant to teach the math of dosage calculations. It is a great resource for practicing calculations. If you need help learning the theory of calculations, I recommend "Clinical Calculations" by Kee & Marshall.
If you are looking for extra pratice problems here they are.

This book is about extra practice. It does not explain how to do dosage problems. You will find more than enough dosage practice problems in this book. I wish however there had been more Heparin dosage problems that covered "the dosage schedule of a patient on Heparin over the course of a day". That was the one test that flunked the most students in my class. Otherwise I would recommend pre-nursing students to buy this book the summer before classes begin and do every problem in the book. You will have fewer problems with math tests given each semester of nursing school.
