Rezensionen

"This book focuses on nursing informatics in the 21st century ... . The intended audience is practicing nurses and undergraduate student nurses. ... This would be an excellent resource for nurses interested in informatics and could be used by nursing faculty as a supplement to other courses or as a standalone informatics course." (Katherine J. Dontje, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2015)
