Gender Issues and Nursing Practice

By Margaret Miers

The relevance of gender to nursing as an activity and as a profession has already been discussed extensively in the sociological literature and gender is recognised as a relevant variable by social policy analysts interested in community care. Furthermore, there is a growing awareness of the sociological aspects of women's (and increasingly men's) health issues.

This book demonstrates the relevance of theoretical approaches to the understanding of gender issues within nursing practice.
