Several people have asked me for information on NI texts.

A few suggestions:

1) Take a look at Linda Thede's textbook, Informatics and Nursing:
Opportunities and Challenges - Lippincott Publishing. A 3rd edition should
be available in January, 2009.

AND

2) Take a look at the CARING website
Checked out the book review recently published in the CARING
newsletter If you go to the website (www.caringonline.org) and select to
view newsletters....check out the Volume 21, Issue 3 and you will see an
EXCELLENT review of this text.These book reviews were initiated to help guide membership on evaluating new texts within the discipline of Nursing Informatics

3) Take a look at the book "Nursing and Informatics for the 21st Century: An International Look at
Practice, Trends and the Future"? Published by HIMSS,edited by
Weaver, Delaney, Weber & Carr.
