Esta edición mantiene la línea de trabajo de las anteriores, al considerar que la evolución del cuidado enfermero está estrechamente ligada a la consideración del concepto de salud-enfermedad que ha caracterizado cada momento histórico. Las características que dan luz a esta obra son su enorme amplitud temático-espacial, dotándola de universalidad desde una perspectiva esencialista; el enfoque sistémico mediante la réplica de una estructura trascapitular, que facilita análisis comparativos estableciendo semejanzas y diferencias entre épocas, ideologías, motivaciones, creencias, técnicas, figuras dedicadas al cuidado, instituciones, etc., y el  caudal pedagógico que transcurre por el libro, constituyendo una columna vertebral a cuyo través se realiza un despliegue de recursos didácticos tan pertinentes como facilitadores del aprendizaje. En la presente edición se han incluido los importantes cambios acaecidos como consecuencia de la pandemia de COVID-19, que han afectado a la sociedad en todos los órdenes de la vida, pero que han puesto de manifiesto la importancia del cuidado de la salud en toda la población mundial.
