Description
Book Synopsis"Mooi Standing's book provides an excellent application of the principal concepts of Cognitive Continuum Theory; her presentation is clear, accurate and her inferences show that she has a first rate grasp of the implications of the theory, and what it means for the care of patients. Her work should stand as a monument to the application of psychological theory to nursing care."Professor Emeritus Kenneth R. Hammond, University of Colorado, USA
"This new text is a first in its ability to offer support to advanced practitioners â Each chapter gives insight into the professional requirements for advanced decision making and retains sight of the practical domain in which these decisions are carried out. Readers will improve their understanding, enhance their abilities in complex care situations and be confident in their ability to function at a higher level of practice."
Shirley Bach, Head of School, School of Nursing and Midwifery, University of Brighton,
