Jonas and Kovners Health Care Delivery in the United States Thirteenth Edition, New

The 13th edition of "Jonas and Kovner's Health Care Delivery in the United States" has received mixed reviews from its users, particularly pharmacy students and professionals. On the positive side, many appreciate the inclusion of more updated content compared to the previous 2016 edition, making it more relevant for current nursing and pharmacy courses. The fact that the book serves as a valuable supplement for a variety of health care educational programs is also noted favorably. However, several users have expressed significant frustration with the physical quality of the book. A common complaint revolves around the binding, which some users found to be excessively rigid, leading to pages falling out if the book is opened significantly. Another user lamented the fact that the book cannot be easily handled or set down open, as it tends to slam shut unexpectedly. This poor durability not only affects usability throughout the semester but also poses problems for resale after the course wraps up since the condition deteriorates quickly. In summary, while the content of the 13th edition is acknowledged as a much-needed update, its physical design and binding quality have soured the experience for many students, overshadowing the benefits of the new information presented. **
