In this collection of essays, contributors from nursing, anthrop logy, and the health sciences share their philosophic, theoretical, and research viewpoints about care. Society tends to view nurses as care providers, but exactly what constitutes care-giving is vague and often misunderstood within curative medical regimens. Not all professional nurses value care or use care theory and knowledge to guide their nursing decisions and actions. Some nurses have drifted away from the practice of caring. The contributions in this book reflect the need to institutionalize care as a normative value in nursing and other health services. The first part of the book examines theoretical, philosophical, and conceptual dimensions of care. The second part focuses on their application to nursing and health practices.
