      This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. It departs from the usual principles-based approach and instead takes a predominantly consequentialist (harms and benefits) approach. It aims to be free of abstract philosophy, but will use the analysis of cases and a reasoned approach to examine alternative arguments. Whilst the book deals with issues in some depth it uses plain language and many clear examples of good and less good practice to illustrate points. It is at a level useful to both beginning and more experienced researchers.

      Basé sur les besoins des infirmiers et des aides-soignants, cet ouvrage ne présente pas de techniques mais décrit le toucher comme prise de contact entre soignant et soigné et insiste beaucoup sur la relation avec le malade (comment aborder l'autre ? Rentrer en communication avec un patient pour apporter bien être...). Des photos permettent au lecteur de découvrir les gestes qui soulagent et qui facilitent l'installation d'un climat de confiance entre le personnel soignant et les malades. Beaucoup de témoignages et récits rendent compte du point de vue du malade.

Ample cross-referencing encourages links between the sections: • Section One - Care of patients with common disorders• Section Two - Common patient problems and related nursing care • Section Three - now entitled - Nursing patients with special challenges. This text is an invaluable resource, not only for student nurses, but also for qualified nurses, those returning to practice and nurse educators.
