Summary: Middle Range Theories, which lie between the working hypotheses derived from day-to-day research and the larger, systemic efforts to develop unified theories, embody the scientif-ic underpinnings that guide nursing practice and research. This two-time AJN book of the year award winner is distinguished by its ability to clarify how theory informs practice and research in the everyday world of nursing. The third edition includes two new theories that address transitions and self-reliance. It revises and updates all other content, and continues to provide ladders of abstraction as aids in understanding the theories within a common logical framework.
