Abstract:
“Sociology will always remain a dynamic and living science due to its roots in the study of human condition with reference to human action and interaction. Nursing sociology aims to understand society and how individuals function within it, within the health sector and specifically within the current nursing scenario, in order to provide holistic patient care.”--Publisher’s description.
