Book Description

ISBN-10: 0721646689 | ISBN-13: 978-0721646688 | Publication Date: August 1993 | Edition: 2nd

This second edition of the 1985 four time AJN Book-of-the-Year award winning book has been substantially revised to incorporate an increased focus on policy and a strengthened feminist perspective. Politics and policy are discussed within each of the four spheres of a nurse's environment: the workplace, government, community, and professional organizations. Contributed by apporoximately 110 nurses, the text includes vignettes exemplifying principles discussed, detailed explanations about the process of change, policy development and analysis, and politics in the four spheres. Other areas addressed are the role of the courts, organizing and mobilizing for action, the involvement of specialty organizations, health care financing and marketing policy issues.
