Written by 2 PhD nurses from University of Ottawa and refined with each new edition (this is the 5th), Reading Research is a brief (~86 pgs) paperback that will help clinical nurses with critical reading of nursing literature for professional development. It guides your thinking on what to look for in different types of research. It's an excellent tool for anyone interested in Evidence-Based Practice for nurses. I have used it with an evidence-based practice institute, journal clubs, and the nursing education department at our hospital. Highly recommended.
Very very helpful in my evidence based practice class. The book was good but this was a very quick easy to understand reference. I have recommended this to other people who will be taking the same class.
I use this book in an academic setting. I have students returning to school and often have long forgotten what they learned in undergraduate research. It is a great refresher crash course! mckvan
