Good, but definitely biased!,

This review is from: Transcultural Nursing : Concepts, Theories, Research and Practice (Paperback)
This is required reading for the history of TC nursing. It does a good job at informing the reader of the birth of modern TC nursing as described by the self-titled expert, M. Leininger. However...it descends into a narcissistic love-fest, and quite frankly gets a bit much to take.
The sections on individual cultures are well done, and the inclusion of the Sunrise Model is helpful.
