I find the book a good resource and full of valuable information. It isn't a book to read in a short while, as I found the information well researched and needing time to process the information.

I would suggest this book for educators, administrators, management, resource persons. Very helpful information.

This book is a fine collaborative discourse defending institutional nursing and institutional quality assurance.

The expanding and changing roles and boundaries of nursing are noted. The changing Doctor Nurse game, shared governance, evidence based practice, self directed education, and decentralization are noted. As a previous reviewer has stated, we have heard this all before.

As Dr Lawrence Savett suggests, We may learn a lot about nursing from this book. The authors suggest we need a lot of consultation so that top heavy administrations can get it right. Terrific book well documented. It could be noted that current news reports that the British are decentralizing their top heavy health administration. As a medical provider (Nurse Practitioner), I think our system seems to need real change including less administrative cost, less constraint on important care, more collaboration, more truth in advertising for pharmaceuticals, and then the "primacy of caring" may prevail.

very well written, although the information was not new to me. Good enjoyable reading, though

good practical suggestions for any work environment and can also be applied to any group seeking a positive outcome

Information is easy to read and can be read in sections which pertain to what you are doing and still be clear. An excellent resource for a hospital trying to make changes in a holistic, caring manner, toward staff while enhancing patient care.

This book was absolutely torture to get through.. The message is good but just so dry...

I had to have this book for class, it is boring and a snoozer to read. The information is cheesy and it's redundant.
