Recensioner i media

“The audience is scholars interested in sociological research in nursing, although the author accurately implies the book's usefulness for those teaching nursing. Graduate students in the health professions, in particular and those in leadership roles in healthcare institutions may find that the book expands ways of thinking about sociological issues in the nursing profession. … This book is high quality from the perspective of a dissertation.” (Martha Scheckel, Doody's Book Reviews, November 22, 2019)
