""Spirituality in Nursing" is thought provoking and Barnum
offers some excellent material and food for thought."--Journal of
Christian Nursing
"This is a very thought-provoking book that asks many questions,
often without answers. It could be used in an undergraduate or
graduate course on spirituality or death and dying, or as
in-service material in hospitals and other healthcare agencies. A
very interesting chapter discusses near death experiences (NDE), a
phenomenon that has begun to be accepted and has garnered more
study."Score: 95, 4 stars --Doody's
- Can nurses be expected to deliver spiritual care?
- Should nursing claim healing as part of its mission?
- Should spiritual care be taught in nursing education?
- What do recent brain studies teach us about spirituality?
Exploring these questions and many more, this new edition of
Spirituality in Nursing provides a wealth of insight into current
challenges presented to both practicing nurses and students. Newly
updated, revised, and expanded, this third edition examines
spirituality in nursing from an interdisciplinary perspective,
drawing from theoretical, historical, religious, psychological, and
even physiological contexts.
In her thought-provoking exploration of this sometimes
controversial topic, Dr. Barnum traces nursing's involvement with
spirituality from its historical ties with religion to the current
interest in new age and alternative health methods. The chapters
offer engaging discussions of important topics such as the
distinction between spirituality and religion, spirituality and
research, humanism, and death and dying. Taking a problem-solving
approach, this book serves as an invaluable guide to understanding
the complex and expanding role of spirituality in nursing.
