Synopsis "An Academic Nurse's Tale: Triumphs, Tribulations, and Travels"
Looking back, author Pamela J. Brink never really wanted to be a nurse, but when she was in high school, she couldn't think of any other career for women she felt drawn to. She was expected to go to college, but she had no idea what she wanted to do with her life. In An Academic Nurse's Tale, Brink narrates her story, telling how her choice turned out to be a perfect one. She began her nursing career in the 1950s, and it spanned the most turbulent times in nursing education in the United States. Brink documents the times, offering a glimpse of the remarkably interesting period in the development of education, research, theory, and skills. She also presents a look at the ever-changing aspects of academic nursing. An Academic Nurse's Tale gives firsthand insight into the versatility of a nursing career and describes the interesting, challenging, and rewarding aspects of the profession.
