Holland (nursing, University of Salford, UK) explores the use of the Roper-Logan-Tierney Model of Nursing through the use of case studies and exercises in this text for nursing students. Focus is on adult patients with a variety of healthcare problems and needs in acute and community-based settings. Case studies help students develop problem- solving skills in using the model. Many of the exercises are aimed at enabling readers to find evidence to support nursing activities. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
