Reviews
Transforming Nursing through Reflective Practice is a collection of reflective chapters which embrace practice from a clinical, ethical, philosophical and cognitive perspective...It is a powerful, empowering read and although not a beginner's guide, a starting point can be extracted from the earlier chapters.
Nursing Standard
