‘This is a very useful addition to existing resources –I hope it becomes a core addition to nursing reading lists everywhere.’
'This is an excellent sociology textbook that I will be recommending to my students. It is interesting, relevant and easy to read – particularly good for the student who a) has not studied sociology at A Level and b) the student who fails to see the relevance of sociology to nursing.'
Very useful for teaching BSc nursing students
This is an excellent sociology textbook that will be of significant use to students on the BSc Nursing Programme - this book will also provide a useful resource for students on a post-grad course for students who are new to sociology.
A very well written book, 5*
Excellent, intelligent contextualising of nursing.
Recommended for any student and registered nurses interested in the sociological element of nursing.
