這本真的太棒了！多虧本書資訊明瞭又易讀，使護理研究更有條理與價值；本書提供我們一個護理實證基礎實務的清晰視界！

儘管是一個無趣的主題，但我仍然喜歡這本書所使用的真實案例，這讓閱讀學習有趣許多，我想本書在這方面所下的功夫顯然是十分成功的。

寫得很好，多虧便利的索引設計，使用非常方便。本書善加解釋了護理研究與實務在銜接的重要性。

Evidence-Based Practice for Nurses: Appraisal and Application of Research, Fifth Edition is an essential resource for teaching students how to translate research into practice. The text is based on the five step IDP process (knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation). The Fifth Edition has been revised to include content related to the evolution of nursing science, quality improvement projects and how they relate to evidence-based practice, as well as search strategies and authentic web content.

The hallmark feature of this text is its presentation of content. Each chapter is divided into ‘bites’ which make the chapters quick to read and easy to understand. To bring content to life, the authors have woven the “Apply What You’ve Learned” case study throughout each chapter to illustrate the importance of hand hygiene. Lastly, the Fifth Edition features a revision to the hierarchy of evidence which helps students identify the types of evidence that fit within each level as well as the tools necessary to appraise evidence.
