"I had always thought that publishing an article was the end of research, but now I realise how pivotal knowledge translation is to improving healthcare."
Now in its fifth edition, Navigating the Maze of Research provides up-to-date, introductory thinking behind research and research processes with clear examples of application to clinical practice.
The text effectively explains research by breaking down processes into three separate and easy-to-understand sections. The fifth edition contextualises the research process by embedding case studies and quotes throughout, and includes student challenges for practice and revision.
- An emphasis on evidence-based practice helps you learn to evaluate and apply contemporary research to practice
- Highlights how the connection between research, critical evaluation of findings and the use of these findings is crucial to inform and improve practice
- A focus on point-of-care considerations to assist you to strengthen the link between research and practice
- Contemporary insights into social media help you understand its role in the research process
- Nursing and midwifery student case studies illustrate key points and research concepts in each chapter
