Notes on Nursing: What it is and What it is Not is a book first published by Florence Nightingale in 1859.

It’s nice and thin. It wasn’t much of a story, just information

Good little book on Florence –

The number of stars given reflects the overall content; it gives a great insight into the art of nursing and the many aspects associated with it. I do wonder whether modern day nurses know even a little bit of the information contained within this book. If not, I reckon they could learn a lot from reading this (I’d go so far as to say there should be a copy of this available on every hospital ward and in every GP surgery). There is, however a printing error at the back of the book. The list of footnotes ends at only number 9, when they carry on throughout the book up to number 38 (see attached photos). I wanted to contact the seller, but cannot find the option to do so on my Amazon app.
