520 _aThis new book written by Jean Watson, a highly regarded visionary of nursing theory reestablishes the critical balance between caring and curing. It blends the technical aspects of modern medicine with the holistic focus traditionally associated with nursing, and serves as a model for nursing practice into the 21st century. Offers the experience of Professor Watson, a professional nurse for more than 35 years and the inspiration behind the internationally renowned Centers for Human Caring. Establishes a model of nursing, based on 10 carative factors, which is already gaining acceptance throughout North America. Analyses the modern health care systems and the reform of health care policy and how it effects the nursing profession. Explores the imbalance between the highly technical, purely scientific nature of modern medicine and the human arts of caring and healing. Provides global examples of transformative caring and healing practices. Explores the nurses role in shaping new models, of caring, healing, and health.
