Nursing
" This book is] a lavishly detailed guide to the essence of
becoming an expert nurse...I believe this book will secure a place
on most educators' and expert clinicians' bookshelves. Every once
in a while a better book comes along; this is one of those
times."

this newly revised second edition explains, through first-hand
accounts of the hard-earned experiential wisdom of expert nurses,

knowledge and practice innovations, but also reflects the authors'
vast experience using the first edition in practice and educational
settings.
This updated edition includes new interviews from acute care,
