Interpersonal Relations In Nursing: A Conceptual Frame of Reference for Psychodynamic Nursing Reprinted edition

4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 21 ratings
See all formats and editions

Originally published in 1952 by a towering figure in nursing history, this book stresses the then novel theory of interpersonal relations as it was relevant to the work of nurses. Her framework suggested that interaction phenomena that occur during patient-nurse relationships have qualitative impact on patient outcomes. While the past four decades have seen a substantial expansion in the use and understanding of interpersonal theory, such as cognitive development and general systems theory, this classic book remains a useful foundation for all nurses as so much subsequent work used this work as its starting point. Springer Publishing Company is delighted to make this book available again.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book will be received with delight by all nurses in the UK and, I believe, in so many countries of the world, as it is such an important event in the world of nursing literature. The real reason why I believe nurses will welcome this booik is that nursing in many parts of the world has lost its way with regard to the fundementality of the nurse-patient relationship....This book has well and truly stood the test of time, and...is now a vitally important leading work in this whole area. It is a fresh and necessary (no, more so) as the day it was written....It will be used by nurses caring for the sick but it will be an exciting discovery for nurses engaged in primary health care."--Trevor Clay, General Secretary, The Royal College of Nursing of the United Kingdom, from the 1987 foreword

5.0 out of 5 stars originally published in 1952 (can you believe it!)

I think this is a foundational work of the pioneer nurse Peplau, who was from England. Her book is important to us as we can gather the essence of how we (nurses) are different from others within the multidisciplinary treatment teams in health care. What is nursing? I do recommend this classic. Susan Derivas
