Reviews

I think Dr Evans has completed an extremely difficult task in producing a highly accessible textbook that will have great impact on a wide range of students. It is a welcome addition to the literature, and I am sure would be an important addition to reading list on the majority of undergraduate and postgraduate nursing programs. - Professor Mark Radford, PhD, RN- Chief Nurse, HEE & Deputy Chief Nursing Officer (England)
