Drawing on the writings, moral vision, and enduring influence of Florence Nightingale, this book explores timeless principles that are still relevant to nursing today. Fusing historical insight with contemporary theory, it reimagines Nightingale's legacy not as a relic, but as a dynamic guide for present-day practice.

What nursing is, and what it ought to be, has long been the subject of debate. Unlike many other health professions, nursing defies simple categorisation. Its theoretical foundations are wide-ranging, its daily practice often obscured by complexity, and its impact, though essential, frequently overlooked or misunderstood. This inherent ambiguity is part of why the notion of 'greatness' in nursing remains difficult to pin down. Practical Strategies for Greatness in Nursing: The Nightingale Effect confronts this issue head-on. Rather than indulging in nostalgia, this book engages critically with the real conditions of modern nursing. It draws on concepts such as 'rebel nurse leadership' and David Graeber's theory of 'bullshit jobs' to challenge the bureaucratisation of care and to advocate for a return to values-led, purpose-driven nursing.

Designed for early-career nurses, students, and aspiring nurse leaders, this accessible book is a motivational resource for enhancing professional identity and impact.
