Review :
Good for an over view, for pre-registration students and further sources for reference. -- University Plymouth 18991230 Good introduction for community. I like the structure around learning outcomes and tasks to do. -- Mrs J Sime, Department of Nursing, University Coll 18991230 The quartet of authors fulfils the promise of the title. The book is user-friendly, with each chapter displaying learning outcomes and incorporating a scattering of exercises, reflection and examples to encourage the reader to relate theory and practice. -- Nursing Standard 20041124
