Creating an amalgamation of nursing, education and philosophy is one of the distinctive features of this book. While each of these disciplines is well established in their academic endeavors, the book provides a unique voice of nursing in the analysis of philosophy’s role in education. To that end, the book features nurses’ critiques of leading philosophers who have very valuable lessons for health care education. Each chapter has been written to capture aspects of the heart, mind and soul of nursing as appreciated through an exploration of a foremost philosopher. The contributors investigate their scholar’s history, the essential features and examination of their work and offer pragmatic discussion questions based upon their work. Personal transcendence of the authors occurred as an unexpected byproduct of their immersion with the philosophers. This book provides philosophical underpinnings of health care education that nurses, nursing educators, clinical specialists and general healthcare educators as well as academic faculty will appreciate.
