In this classic historical text on hospitals, Florence Nightingale
voices the importance of hygiene, fresh air and water, cleanliness,
proper drainage, and ample light as well as ongoing consideration
for patients' feelings. Nightingale's ability to effectively
articulate her ideas impressed her contemporaries and continues to
influence readers of today. During the Crimean War, Florence
Nightingale achieved renown as "The Lady with the Lamp", the
tireless caretaker of wounded soldiers. Later, Nightingale searched
Europe for innovations to help the army improve its hospital care.
This report of her findings and suggestions had a profound effect
on the medical community and reestablished the author as an
international healthcare authority. Despite the advances in medical
knowledge since Nightingale's era, her common sense-approach
continues to form a solid foundation for nursing. Publishing in
conjunction with the Florence Nightingale Museum, Notes on
Hospitals celebrates the bicentenary anniversary of Florence
Nightingale. This volume serves as a companion to Nightingale's
classic of nursing literature, Notes on Nursing: What It Is, and
What It Is Not 9781910821374.
Florence Nightingale is famous as the heroine of the Crimean War
and later as a campaigner for medical care founded on a clean
environment and good nursing. Suggestions for Thought, which
contains the novel Cassandra, is a central text in
nineteenth-century history of feminist thought.

"The book is sure to reignite a passion for nursing in nurses who
may be bogged down in their daily work of nursing practice,
education, and/or research. Nurses across the globe are universally
grateful for the pathway Nightingale paved for them. In addition,
the book is an inspiration to anyone working toward social change,
as Nightingale sets a powerful example about the outcome of
positive persistence for the common good. There are numerous other
published versions of Notes on Nursing, but this one stands apart
