Informatics and Nursing 4th edition

I received a pre-publication copy of the 4th edition of the Informatics and Nursing textbook in the mail today.  I really hope that users continue to find it readable and a great source of learning.
  • The chapter on hardware is now included in the appendix. 
  • Chapter 12 on mobile computing includes screenshots of the iPhone and iPad, as well as some detailed information on cell phones, iPads, and other mobile devices.  
  • The chapters on office software include references to the software for the Mac and free office software such as OpenOffice.org and Google docs. 
  • Users will be able to download the files used for the textbook screenshots to interact with the data. 
  • The other updates include meaningful use, the HITECH Act, data security, disaster recovery, and more about HIPAA. 
  • Student and faculty support will be available online at http://thepoint/lww.com/Sewell4e.   
  • The website does indicate that the book will be available as an eBook.  I hope that the hyperlinks work! 
I have included a screenshot of the textbook cover below.
