5.0 out of 5 stars A student's perspective, November 29, 2002
By A Customer
I am a second year nursing student, and this has been my most favorite book this semester. Dr. Watson's definition of human care and caring is very clear and concise. The book is a true work of philosophical art. I enjoyed it very much, and will read it over and over. Thank you Dr. Watson!!
