Unrest in Iran, the mortgage meltdown, and the price of gas. You've got
enough on your plate to think about
without worrying whether you're
keeping up on the latest healthcare and
nursing literature. So once again we've
surveyed recent books that registered nurses should
know about and compiled our handy summer book
review special. We're obviously covering books on
nursing and healthcare, but also have a couple of
unusual ones thrown in: one questioning the
supremacy of MRI technology, and another by a neurosurgeon exploring the spiritual side of medicine.
We hope after breezing through these that you'll feel
a little more on top of things. Happy reading.
