Read this for my Theory Class. I feel like it went over the material well and throughly. I would recommend it for those continuing in their nursing careers.

Fascinating book about how to develop theory in nursing. I find this book authentic and is nursing to its core adopting mainly Carper's patterns of knowing plus Chinn's very own emancipatory knowing. The books tries to persuade nurse scientists to develop concepts through concept analysis, confirm through empiric knowledge, and translate this to the bedside. This is a great book!
Read this four times, my fascination in theory development increases!
