Description
This comprehensive resource examines how nursing theory and patterns of knowing affect nursing practice. In addition to the concepts of
ethical knowledge, aesthetic knowledge, and empiric knowledge development, you'll learn about the newest pattern of knowing – emancipatory
knowing. This pattern centers on the human capacity to create change by envisioning desired outcomes, particularly in situations that
involve injustice or social wrongs. Throughout the book, helpful activities encourage you to reflect on important concepts and explore
how evidence-based nursing theory can be used to improve the quality of care.
