Title: Perspectives in nursing, 1983-1985
First published: 1983
Description: This volume, being a compilation of papers based on program sessions given at the National League for Nursing's Sixteenth Biennial Convention in Philadelphia, June 1-4, 1983, addresses both current topics and emerging trends and represents a wide range of subject matter within the vast scope of the occupations and preoccupations of the nursing profession. Some of the papers published here cover topics and issues of interest to all nurses; some will be of special interest to educators; and some, it is hoped, will be of practical assistance to nursing managers and administrators. Thus, Perspectives in Nursing, 1983-1985 should have value as a reference for students in advanced courses in nursing and administration. It is with this broad potential readership in mind that the present volume is published. If it achieves its purpose, this should be the first in an ongoing biennial series reflecting the state of the art in many areas of nursing service and education. - Foreword.
