Description
Paediatric nursing's foremost text, Whaley & Wong's "Nursing Care of Infants And Children", retains in its sixth edition the qualities that have contributed to its great success. As always, readers can count on "Nursing Care of Infants And Children" to be highly accurate, thoroughly updated, comprehensive, and remarkably readable. The current organization and many of the popular features are retained in this sixth edition, and new features have been added to broaden its focus in the areas of community care, cultural awareness, and family-centered care. The sixth edition features five new co-authors that were carefully selected because of their knowledge of pediatric nursing, their commitment to excellence, their competence, and their desire to work diligently to help ensure the excellent reputation of this textbook. Donna Wong remains as the main author of the text, reviewing the entire manuscript to ensure the quality, currency, and readability of past editions.
