Easy to read & worth it! The book was a required one for my L&M course and I can definitely say that it was a really good book. The material was presented in an easy-to-read format and the chapters themselves were very short, providing practice questions to review what you learned. Definitely worth buying!" - Brenda, Online Reviewer "This was a great overview of things that impact nursing leadership and management. It gives the reader a general introduction or explanation which can offer new or emerging nurse leader some preliminary knowledge of leadership/management issues they may encounter. Good intro to administrative nursing practice." - Karen, Online Reviewer
