New co-authors Kirsty Barclay and Sara Zarasvand have updated the original text by Merryl Harvey and Lucy Land to:
- Continue drawing on examples from midwifery and all four fields of nursing, including mental health nursing and child nursing, to bring research to life.
- Cover new and updated NMC professional education standards and map all relevant policy and law.
- Equip readers with the skills to do ethical research and consider issues around equity, diversity and inclusion.
This book is the ideal research methods guidebook for pre- and post-registration nurses and midwives.
Harvey and Land empathetically provide novice nurse researchers with a platform from which they build their understanding of what can be a challenging subject. At the same time, they also give those returning to research a well-structured and thought out refresher, easing them back into the intricacies of the research process.
