Reviews

This book will undoubtedly be of use to nursing and health-care students seeking prompts to help them consider problem issues in palliative care practice, or possibly to help identify new research questions. Practitioners in palliative services will also find it a useful resource for illuminating the experiences of individuals and families in their care. (International Journal of Palliative Nursing, 2012) The book is nicely balanced reporting on the needs of teenagers with cancer and the different challenges facing children living with complex, long-term healthcare needs. (Nursing Children and Young People, 1 June 2012)
