"The purpose of this book is to provide nursing students, as well as practicing nurses, with the understanding, knowledge, and guidance to practice family nursing in any setting and across the lifespan. Since the last edition, there have been changes in families, family health, health policy, and the environment which affect the health of families. Each chapter reflects those changes with current evidence-based information"-- Provided by publisher
