Reviews of 2nd edition"The entire approach of this excellent book confirms the importance of a 'bionursing' view of the relationship between the life sciences and the practice of nursing." - Nursing Times "An invaluable guide to the application of physiology in nursing practice." - Journal of Advanced Nursing "This is an excellent upgrade to a well-known text. The book's primary audience remains the nursing student training in the UK. However, Physiology for Nursing Practice will also appeal to trained nurses needing to refresh their knowledge of the subject." Ian Chisholm-Bunter; Nursing Standard; vol.20
