  The CL Dictionary of Nursing provides more depth and covers a greater variety of topics than pocket dictionaries. An exciting new feature is that this edition has its own website, making the book more portable, yet providing access to a massive amount of material. The A-Z entries and appendices have been completely updated and many new words/terms have been included. Entries have been carefully edited and illustrations selected to give a true nursing focus, and photographs have been included for the first time.

  This is a new approach to nursing reference...The scope of nurse education and clinical practice has expanded considerably in recent years, requiring both students and practitioners to understand a wide range of issues in depth. The new edition of this established dictionary has been expanded and redesigned to provide a uniquely nursing-focused reference source far more suited to your needs than existing pocket nursing dictionaries, which are often restricted to little more than medical terminology. Now in an accessible 2-colour format, the increased size allows for broader in-depth coverage of the terminology and concepts needed for effective, holistic practice in today's multidisciplinary healthcare environment, including: adult nursing, cancer nursing and oncology, child health, complementary therapies, critical care, information technology, learning disabilities, management and policy issues, medico-legal and ethics, mental health, nutrition, pharmacology, public health, research, social and behavioural sciences, and terminology from physiotherapy, speech and language therapy, occupational therapy and radiology.
