Advanced Practice Nursing

Abstract

This expanded second edition of Canadian Perspectives on Advanced Practice Nursing uses a case-study approach to understanding advanced practice nursing roles and competencies and their impact across all levels of the health care system. Focusing on the roles of clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, this volume explores the continued integration of advanced practice nursing in relation to social, political, educational, regulatory, legislative, and economic environments that have shaped them. The contributors articulate the historical development and evolution of advanced practice nursing in Canada, from rural and remote outpost beginnings to the present, and propose a vision for the future within the Canadian health care system.

Highly accessible, comprehensive, and rich in pedagogy, this well-updated new edition is an indispensable resource for students in advanced practice nursing programs across Canada, as well as practicing clinical nurse specialists, nurse practitioners, policy- and decisionmakers, professional nursing organizations, and leaders in health care.

Aboriginal Health

Leadership/Coaching

Abstract

Numerous studies, inquiries, and statistics accumulated over the years have demonstrated the poor health status of Aboriginal peoples relative to the Canadian population in general. Aboriginal Health in Canada is about the complex web of physiological, psychological, spiritual, historical, sociological, cultural, economic, and environmental factors that contribute to health and disease patterns among the Aboriginal peoples of Canada.

The authors explore the evidence for changes in patterns of health and disease prior to and since European contact, up to the present. They discuss medical systems and the place of medicine within various Aboriginal cultures and trace the relationship between politics and the organization of health services for Aboriginal people. They also examine popular explanations for Aboriginal health patterns today, and emphasize the need to understand both the historical-cultural context of health issues, as well as the circumstances that give rise to variation in health problems and healing strategies in Aboriginal communities across the country. An overview of Aboriginal peoples in Canada provides a very general background for the non-specialist. Finally, contemporary Aboriginal healing traditions, the issue of self-determination and health care, and current trends in Aboriginal health issues are examined.

Abstract

Advances in genetic research have captured the attention of the media and the public through reports about genetically caused diseases and behaviours. However, all too often the coverage of scientists' innovations has implied that genetic factors alone are responsible for effects ranging from personality and sexual preferences to morbid obesity and intellectual disabilities. Challenging Genetic Determinism argues that hypotheses cannot be based solely on genetic factors but must take into account the context in which these factors occur.
