    Marie-Françoise Collière a regroupé dans cet ouvrage différents articles et communications abordant à la fois la conception et l'approche des soins. Son analyse l'amène à dégager certains aspects du dilemme posé à la profession infirmière. Ce dilemme se situe autour de la nécessité de retrouver en deçà et au-delà de tout traitement : – des soins qui accompagnent la vie ; – des soins qui retrouvent leurs dimensions culturelles et sociales ; – des soins dont les effets soient reconnus socialement et économiquement ; – des soins exigeant des conditions appropriées pour les prodiguer. Cette édition comprend de nouveaux textes portant sur l'identité infirmière, les fondements culturels des soins, la nature des soins accompagnant les grands passages de la vie. Cet ouvrage permet aux infirmières/ers et aux usagers des soins de nourrir leur réflexion et leur argumentation sur l'apport et la place irremplaçable des soins.

"Section 1: Introduction" presents the views of various authors discussing practical and theoretical issues of general interest and two chapters cover clinical evaluation in a novel and comprehensive fashion. A feature of Neuropsychology in recent years, the spectacular comeback of single case studies, is covered in a chapter on statistical approaches comparing statistical procedures appropriate for groups to that of single cases. Through two different points of view the important topic of Hemispheric specialization is examined and several chapters deal with the application of theoretical models to neuropsychology in its daily and research aspects. "Section 2: Attention" examines selective attention with chapters on visuo/spatial attentional phenomena and the temporal aspects of attention. The phenomenon of failure to orient, neglect and neglect related phenomena are dealt with in a separate chapter as is the anatomy and the neurophysiological properties of the circuits whose lesion produces neglect deficits in primates.
