The health of babies, children and young people is fundamentally different from that of adults, so their healthcare must reflect their unique needs and engage their parents, family members and communities. Paediatric Nursing in Australia and New Zealand introduces nursing students to the care of infants, children, young people and their families in a range of clinical and community settings across Australasia. This third edition includes New Zealand content and an increased focus on families. New chapters cover health services available for Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Maori children, the transition to parenthood for new families, children's sleep patterns and behaviour, and paediatric health in school settings. Case studies and reflective questions encourage students to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Written by an expert team, Paediatric Nursing in Australia and New Zealand equips future nurses with the knowledge and skills to provide evidence-based care to babies, children and their families.

Donna Waters and her husband, Ron, are well-acquainted with Africa and its varied cultures. Missionaries to several African countries for many years, they have encountered dangers and experienced wonderful victories. Travelling over rough, almost impassable trails in pitch darkness to reach people who have never heard of Jesus, or hiking through dense undergrowth to small villages with the message of the cross, the Waters' have given many years of their lives to tell the old, old story of God's love to the lost. Donna began writing as a young girl, and her stories have come from several years of teaching school, pastoring alongside Ron, and raising their three children.
