The humanities have long been recognized as having a place in
nursing knowledge, and have been used in education, theory, and
research by nurses. However, the place of humanities in nursing has
always remained ambiguous. This book offers an in-depth exploration
of the relationship between humanities and nursing. The book starts
with a survey of the history of humanities in nursing, in
comparison with medical humanities and in the context of the
emergence of interdisciplinary health humanities. There is a
description of applications of humanities within nursing. A central
section offers an argument for placing the humanities firmly within
a mixed model of nursing knowledge that is based upon embodied
cognition. Final chapters explore these ideas through a series of
essays on topics of humanities as a form of intervention, prose and
poetry in relation to nursing, and applications of the Buddhist
concept of interdependence. Nursing and Humanities is intended
primarily for nurse academics and graduate students, who have an
interest in nursing theory, applications of arts and humanities in
education, and qualitative research approaches. It will also
interest practicing nurses who are looking for an account of
nursing that combines the technical and the human.
