Dean’s Textbook “Hot off the Press”

The landmark 10th edition of Principles and Practice of Psychiatric Nursing is hitting the shelves. This textbook, written by Dean Gail Stuart, has previously won four American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Awards. This 10th edition continues to be the true leader and standard-bearer in the field as it takes content to a new level, reflecting contemporary aspects of health care. Specifically, this edition includes new content on motivational interviewing, traumatic brain injury, substance use screening and brief interventions (SBIRT), lateral violence in nursing, health care reform including integrated physical and mental health care, virtual mental health care, patient-centered health care homes, and care management and collaborative care models. In addition, there are new chapters on Policy and Advocacy in Mental Health Care and The Military and Their Families, and in response to the important work of the Institute of Medicine, there are Quality and Safety boxes included in each clinical chapter. Finally, this text, in conjunction with the Evolve website, presents an innovative and complete educational package that goes well beyond the pages of the textbook to include:

• PowerPoint® lecture slides
• Image collection
• Test bank
• Case studies (with and without answers)
• Audience response system questions
• Research agenda
• Video clips
• Audio lectures
• Critical thinking questions
• NCLEX® exam-style review questions
• Student enrichment activities
