Description and Table of Contents
Description
Known in her lifetime as a leader in the organization of the nursing profession, Lavinia Lloyd Dock compiled the first nurses' manual of drugs from medical texts. "Materia Medica for Nurses" remained the standard nursing school text for a generation. Dock called for the separation of medical and nursing spheres of authority and the professional organization of nurses remained her central concern. The documents selected here reflect the developments and progress made in nursing under her leadership, as well as charting how Dock became the communications center of the professional nursing world.
