Medical Book Nurses in the Political Arena
..The background presented in this book and the wonderful stories it tells will inform, stimulate, and inspire current and future nurses. This book fills an important gap in the nursing literature."--from the foreword by Claire Fagin, PhD, RN, FAAN
"An excellent example of how nursing scholarship approaches a complex subject. Its final recommendations should be immediately adopted as requirements for all nursing school curricula."--Suzanne Gordon, author of Life Support: Three Nurses on the Front Lines
This book was written to encourage nurses to become involved in the political process--by running for office, seeking appointments, or becoming active in local government. The authors have interviewed 46 nurses who hold or have run for public office--from members of Congress to local government. These nurses share their experiences on everything from getting informed on the issues and being involved in a political party, to presenting the right image, and fund-raising.
