Ann Marie Rafferty, Jane Robinson
'A claim is made in the Introduction that nursing history if in the
process of becoming a "robust and reflective scholarship". This
claim is borne out by the general excellence of the papers
presented and the book would be a worthy addition to the shelves of
nursing & midwifery departmental Libraries in particular, and
social studies in general.' - International History of Nursing
Journal
'A breath of fresh air for teachers and students...should provide
good bed-time reading for students coming up to exams. It should
also occupy an important place on the bedroom shelf of any nurse
with a professional interest in political issues.' - Nursing
Times
'A valuable asset to tutors wanting to interest students in wider
horizons and in what happened the day before yesterday and why.' -
Monica Baly, Journal of Advanced Nursing
'Tackles some hitherto rather neglected but important issues in
nursing history and continues with the trend set by Davies of
looking at the experience of 'ordinary' nurses, rather than the
'heroic' figures around whom nursing history was so long focussed.'
- British Journal of Midwifery
