Nursing Standard, March 11:: vol 23 no 27:: 2009 "The publication of the revised 6th edition of this text is therefore a welcome and timely addition to assist the near and/or newly qualifying nurse to a successful transition into professional practice. The book is commendable in that it adopts a practical focus. The concepts addressed are sufficiently discussed and applied to the real world of nursing practice. Changing demands of practice are responded to, in that topic areas fundamental to the reality of today's nursing world are highlighted and the focus is on promoting the development of the requisite knowledge and skill sets to meet professional demands."
