Now in its third edition, Philosophical and Theoretical Perspectives for Advanced Nursing Practice has established itself as one of the few texts that successfully explores the healthy discourse surrounding nursing theory, research, and practice. A collection of 26 classic and contemporary articles selected by Janet Kenney, the text is divided into six parts that address the discipline and the development of nursing knowledge; the history and evolution of nursing science; the concepts of the metaparadigm; contemporary perspectives of nursing; and the interrelationships between nursing theory, research, and practice. Elaine E. Stashinko This book is a collection of 33 classic articles by nurse leaders; 19 chapters were from the first edition (1996) and 14 new articles by nurse scholars were added for this second edition. The purposes are to assist graduate nurses to understand the historical, philosophical, and theoretical foundations and the evolution of nursing science and how the dynamic nature of the nursing paradigm influences practice and research. This book is targeted toward graduate nurses and advanced practice nursing students, but is also appropriate for doctoral level study in nursing. The editor is a credible authority in nursing theory and the chapter contributors are well known past and present nursing scholars. The book is organized into eight parts, each with an overview describing the essence of the chapters. Part I includes classic historical and contemporary articles describing the nursing discipline and development of knowledge. Part II chapters focus on the history, evolution, and nature of nursing science. Parts III through VI focus on paradigms prevalent in nursing science and the definitions and meanings of the four metaparadigm concepts in nursing -- person, environment, health, and nursing. Parts VII and VIII present a discussion of the interrelationships among nursing theory, research, and practice. This volume is a compilation of often-cited, scholarly articles and is useful for graduate and doctoral level courses focusing on nursing theory and knowledge development. This volume may be compared with Nicoll's Perspectives on Nursing Theory, 3rd Edition (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 1997) which also contains seminal papers by nurse scholars on nursing theory. While Nicoll's volume containsmore historical articles and is more comprehensive, this book has more recent and timely additions and more attention to diverse perspectives such as the feminist and environmental paradigms. There is some duplication of key classic articles between these two volumes; however, neither book is exhaustive and both stimulate thinking, organize significant papers, and uniquely contribute to discipline-specific knowledge and scholarly dialogue about the interrelationships among theory, research, and practice in nursing.

Contemporary articles challenge students' thinking on issues such as evidence-based practice, critical thinking, and traditional concepts of health and nursing. Classic articles engage students in controversial questions still debated today. This third edition contains new section introductions. The editor teaches nursing at Arizona State University.
