In its pursuit to bring about an awakening among students of nursing about human social behaviour, this third edition of Sociology for Nurses continues to build on sociological theories that are of relevance to the nursing community. Conforming to the syllabus prescribed by the Indian Nursing Council and catering to the needs of B.Sc. Nursing students in their first year, for the paper on Applied Sociology, this book provides jargon-free explanation of even the most difficult concepts for student's benefit.
