*** Awarded First Place in the 2015 AJN Book of the Year Award in
two categories - "History and Public Policy" and "Professional
Issues" *** This anthology presents the philosophical and practice
perspectives of nurse scholars whose works center on promoting
nursing research, practice, and education within frameworks of
social justice and critical theories. Social justice nursing is
defined by the editors as nursing practice that is emancipatory and
rests on the principle of praxis which is practice aimed at
attaining social justice goals and outcomes that improve health
experiences and conditions of individuals, their communities, and
society. There is a lack in the nursing discipline of resources
that contain praxis approaches and there is a need for new
concepts, models, and theories that could encompass scholarship and
practice aimed at purposive reformation of nursing, other health
professions, and health care systems. Chapters bridge critical
theoretical frameworks and nursing science in ways that are
understandable and useful for practicing nurses and other health
professionals in clinical settings, in academia, and in research.
In this book, nurses' ideas and knowledge development efforts are
not limited to problems and solutions emerging from the dominant
discourse or traditions. The authors offer innovative ways to work
towards establishing alternative forms of knowledge, capable of
capturing both the roots and complexity of contemporary problems as
distributed across a diversity of people and communities. It fills
a significant gap in the literature and makes an exceptional
contribution as a collection of new writings from some of the
foremost nursing scholars whose works are informed by critical
frameworks.
Apply the five patterns of knowing to improve nursing care!
Knowledge Development in Nursing: Theory and Process, 11th Edition
explores nursing theory and how it is related to nursing research
and quality patient care. It examines the principles of knowledge
development, using the patterns of knowing to help you develop
sound clinical judgment. Each chapter begins with a Basics section,
which is followed by a Now That You Know the Basics section
providing a deeper understanding of knowledge patterns for more
advanced learners. Written by nursing educators Peggy Chinn, Maeona
Kramer, and Kathleen Sitzman, this edition reflects the latest
thinking in nursing knowledge development and adds emphasis to
real-world application. Discussion of the five Patterns of Knowing
includes empiric, personal, aesthetic, ethical, and emancipatory
knowledge, defining the different types of knowledge and how they
relate to each other. Discussion of evidence-based practice
provides examples of how the five patterns of knowing may be
applied to nursing practice. Coverage of theory, theory
development, and the relationship of theory to nursing research and
practice helps you learn to apply theory to practice. Interpretive
summaries highlight the interrelatedness of all patterns of
knowing, making it easier to apply all dimensions of knowing to
specific chapter content. Full-color diagram in the front of the
book depicts how the patterns of knowing are related. Glossary
defines the key terms and concepts of nursing theory. NEW! Updated
content reflects recent trends in nursing knowledge development and
