Media Reviews
Praise for previous editions: This edition takes into account developments in reflective theory and has more coverage of different approaches, including the use of narrative dialogue and performance, and greater emphasis on the process of writing over the realization of desirable practice. It also has new chapters on ensuring quality and managing conflict. (Book News, December 2009) 'Christopher Johns is an internationally recognised pioneer of reflective practice in nursing and health care. The first edition of this book was an excellent resource and this updated version is equally impressive. This is a superb resource for nurses and all those eager to enhance their knowledge and skills in reflective practice. It is well presented, user-friendly and stimulating.' (Nursing Standard)
