Some details have been added to give color and interest, and to present to the reader a picture of the times described. Paragraph headings and chapter summaries are given, setting forth what seem to the writer the chief events in each period. These are designed as a convenience to the reader and as a suggestion that the book may be come some day a text for teaching.

Book Description
Notes On Nursing: What It Is, And What It Is Not. This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Book Description
Excerpt from A Short History of Nursing: From the Earliest Times to the Present Day The references will suggest something of the rich body of historical material which is available for those who are interested in following up special top ics or who wish to enjoy a rather fuller acquaintance with the characters and the incidents which are necessarily so briefly discussed in this short book. Although Miss Nutting's name does not appear on this volume, it was at her suggestion that the work was undertaken, and the authors are greatly indebted to her not only for helpful criticism, but for her share in the original History of Nursing from which much of this has been drawn. We are also indebted to many others who have generously responded with information about the modern fields of nursing. L. L. D.
