This is a very useful textbook for new students

This is a clear, accessible but intellectually meaningful text, that understands the different demands, resources and expectations that student nurses may have, and provides them with a blueprint for navigating their way around the world of practice and academia without losing sight of real life. The chapters on time management and on reflection are particularly helpful.
