Health and illness are not opposed, and disease is not an enemy that strikes a victim. Rather, health and disease are synthesized parts of a unitary whole, dialectically fused in an individual and the envir onment. This book offers a vital new approach, focusing on the pattern of the whole and advancing caring as the key moral and professional i mperative for promoting health. Essential for all nursing and health c are educators, practitioners, and students.

After taking care of her mother during a terminal illness, she decided to become a nurse
Early in her academic career, she held teaching positions at Tennessee, New York University and Pennsylvania State University. Newman taught at the University of Minnesota until her 1996 retirement.
Her theory of health as expanding consciousness was presented at a nursing theory conference in the late 1970s. She expanded the theory by studying its use in cardiac disease and cancer from 1986 to 1997.
The theory is based on the science of unitary human beings written by Martha East. Rogers.
In 2008, the American Academy of Nursing recognized Newman as a Living Legend, an honor which is awarded to a small group of nurses "in honor of their extraordinary contributions to the nursing profession, sustained over the course of their careers.".
