Sandy reviews book on research a subject which is difficult to read.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I am currently enrolled in a Masters Degree in Forensic Nursing which is very interesting, however as with any an all Masters programs there is an element of research. I do not like research, and to have to read an entire book or two on it seems excruciatingly painful. However, the book I am currently reading and reviewing, it makes research a little easier to understand. There a alot of definitions in research and these terms are defined very simply in the book. The chapters are reasonable in length and the reading is actually quite easy, which makes taking a research class much easier.
Excellent

Nursing: the humanistic imperativ
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is the book that in a comprehensive and clear mode opens doors to qualitative research in nursing. As a nursing research teacher I find this book indispensable when we think of qualitative research. Here we can really understand: philosophy and theory of the foundations of the qualitative research; conducting the qualitative research and essencial elements, ethical requirements; phenomenology; grounded theory; etnography; historical research; the action research; all these metodologies apllied to nursing; triangulation as a qualitative research strategy (I don't know any other book that goes so deep and understandable in this field as this one); practical guide for sharing qualitative research results. For all this, it contents 344 pages of indispensable knowledge for nursing and nursing research
