OverviewThis text examines the effect of new management strategies on nurses, their morale and the profession as a whole. Using a study of nurses conducted by the Royal College of Nursing, the author analyzes the relationship between nurses and their managers, looking at the contrasting ways in which each group argues its case and presents its identity. The book is aimed at anyone interested in the future of the health service and also serves as an introduction to postmodern approaches to analysis.
