Nursing textbooks question

  1. 0 Hi all,

    I am currently an undergraduate working on a research project regarding medical sociology, specifically in the nursing field. For my research, I need to look up a few nursing textbooks. I was wondering if anyone could give me some examples of "top" nursing textbooks that they a) either remember using from nursing school, or b) still currently reference. I tried a quick google search, but it wasn't very helpful so I figured I'd post here.

    Thanks so much for any help!
