This narrative-based work is the first to describe Human Caring
Literacy from the perspective of caring scientists who "live the
life" by incorporating the precepts of human caring into every
aspect of their personal and professional lives. It demonstrates,
for nursing students and experienced nurses in a variety of roles,
the abundant ways in which Caring Science Theory powerfully informs
the lives of frontline clinicians, nursing deans and faculty,
APRNs, and administrators in the United States and globally. The
book goes beyond theory to illustrate how Caring Science is used
every day in a variety of arenas and scenarios, ranging from the
advancement of the discipline of nursing in South America to
peacemaking in the Middle East. It describes the methods that help
practitioners develop mindfulness, reflection, authentic presence,
intentionality, and a caring consciousness in the service of
providing authentic, heart-centered care for patients, their
families, and societies. Designed to cultivate loving-kindness
behaviors in all settings, including among nurses themselves, these
narratives provide welcome alternatives to current ways of being,
both professional and personal. Provides Examples of Caring Science
