Riassunto

Introduction to Maternity and Pediatric Nursing provides a solid foundation in
obstetrics and pediatric nursing. In this combination text, the information forms one
continuum of knowledge flowing from conception to adulthood. A new 4-color
design increases the pedagogical effectiveness of the book. The concept of studying
simple-to-complex and health-to-illness is retained, along with the popular body
system organization. Emphasis on prevention and early recognition and the family is
maintained, while the content on antepartum care is strengthened.
