Summary: See what reviewers are saying…. “Well written, good explanation for terminology.” “Chapter 16, which reflects the research to theory strategy, is a nice component to add to a theory book. I don’t see this information in other theory textbook.” “What Meleis text does particularly well is reflecting on our historical development and writings. Part six (historical literature) is an excellent resource for students at ALL levels. In addition… Chapter 18 is significant in capturing the development and progress of nursing.”
