Whilst I meant to dip in and out of this book there are many chapters that I sat and read through due to their motivational and interesting viewpoints. This book is very relatable to problems that students find challenging such as how to write themes and introductions and conclusions to chapters. Many of the topics such as "joining the conversation" struck a cord with my own experiences too as a nurse and educator.
