    "This is an excellent book for novice and experienced nurses. The chapters provoke thought and critical thinking and discuss current issues in healthcare. I learned about issues related to the history of nursing that I did not know about and found to be very interesting. The cartoons are pertinent to the chapters and add levity to the reading material. This 12th edition is justified as it covers topics related to current nursing issues and other aspects of health care and management."
