The latest edition of the well-known and well-loved dictionary for nurses. The 17th edition is a whole new concept for the new generation of nurses. Not only is the format modern, with a bright, washable cover (in the style of the House Physician's Survival Guide), but the definitions have been extended to include more contemporary nursing entries. PREP, community nursing, health promotion, and complementary therapies will all be included in the definitions. The dictionary has been compiled in conjunction with the RCN, following extensive market research among students, practising nurses and librarians. So it is tailor made for their needs. The foreword is written by Christine Hancock, currently General Secretary of the RCN. This new dictionary should do more than hold its own in the face of competition from the Bailliere Nurse's Dictionary. In fact, it should knock it well and truly out of its number one position! It will be available in ISE. Features: * Compiled in conjunction with the RCN and following extensive market research * Tailor made for nurses' needs * New definitions for today's nursing world * Bright and bold, with a practical, washable cover * Pocket-sized * At ?6.95 it is highly competitive
