This review is from: Health Promotion in Nursing Practice (Paperback)

I had this text years ago in my original nursing program. I needed a copy (since I can't find mine) and this text came quickly, in excellent condition, and was inexpensive. It is a good reference text for nursing.

The author Pender's great work. I just wish Pender used easier language. It takes long to understand it. However, ideas are fascinating.
