About the Book

The American Association of Colleges of Nursing's Essentials for Masters Education in Nursing specifies the following as the core content of the graduate curriculum: research, health care policy, organization of the health care delivery system, health care financing, ethics, professional role development, theoretical foundations of nursing practice, human diversity and social issues, and health promotion and disease prevention. There is currently no comprehensive book that covers all of these topics. As a result, graduate faculty have had to supplement numerous texts with readings. Core Concepts for Advanced Practice edited by Denise Robinson addresses all core content subjects (with the exception of research, which requires a substantial text of its own), and serves as a basic text for the core courses taught at the masters level. Written by experts in the various fields, each chapter includes an overview of the topic, definitions of relevant terms, review and history of the literature, critical issues, priorities for research, future directions, implications for advanced practice nursing, critical thinking activities, and suggestions for further learning, comprising Internet resources and a bibliography.
