What this site is about
This site is about points of meeting between nursing and humanities. Nursing practice in all its diversity, nurse education, nursing research and the enormous richness of the humanities – art, literature, poetry, history, philosophy, drama, film, music…
My starting point is that there has been – and continues to be – a long and productive relationship between nursing and humanities, but for various reasons it is a relationship that has not received the attention it deserves.
In my book Nursing and Humanities I describe the relationship and go into the reasons why it has always remained half hidden. https://www.routledge.com/Nursing-and-Humanities/McCaffrey/p/book/9780367347765
Just out! – volume on issues in nurse education edited by Martin Lipscomb – Chapter 6 by me.
