内容説明

With a varied collection of readings focusing on contemporary issues in professional nursing, this new book introduces students to the many perspectives affecting nurses and society. This text incorporates both nursing and non-nursing literature, covering such issues as education and role transition, governance, and cost containment. Articles are organized from simple to complex, making it easy for faculty to assign readings to beginning, intermediate, and advanced students. The author provides an introduction for each section of articles, framing them in historical, political, and sociocultural settings.
