False Dawn: The Rise and Decline of Public Health Nursing de Karen Buhler-Wilkerson

False Dawn: The Rise and Decline of Public Health Nursing: Critical Issues in Health and Medicine

Autor Karen Buhler-Wilkerson Cuvânt înainte de Susan M. Reverby, Professor Julie A. Fairman Contribuţii de Sandra B. Lewenson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2021 – vârsta ani
Since its initial publication in 1989 by Garland Publishing, Karen Buhler Wilkerson’s False Dawn: The Rise and Decline of Public Health Nursing remains the definitive work on the creation, work, successes, and failures of public health nursing in the United States. False Dawn explores and answers the provocative question: why did a movement that became a significant vehicle for the delivery of comprehensive health care to individuals and families fail to reach its potential? Through carefully researched chapters, Wilkerson details what she herself called the “rise and fall” narrative of public health nursing: rising to great heights in its patients' homes in the struggle to control infectious diseases, assimilate immigrants, and tame urban areas -- only to flounder during the later growth of hospitals, significant immigration restrictions, and the emergence of chronic diseases as endemic in American society.

This new edition, with a new introduction by two of the leading historians of nursing and with an updated bibliography, fills a critical gap in this literature."
