This inspirational book, spearheaded by one of the top Florence Nightingale scholars in nursing today, will help nurses relate Florence Nightingales quotes to todays modern-day practices. The goals and importance of nursing are still the same as they were 150 years ago. And its fair to say that Nightingale had no idea how much she was going to impact the nursing world while she was a caring for the sick and wounded during the Crimea. With this book, present day nurses can learn that Nightingale was not only just like them, but also that they can make a profound impact on the nursing profession. This book will make Nightingale accessible, relevant, and humanize her a bit and allow current nurses to find their inner Florence.
