Book Description
Three-time recipient of the AJN Book of the Year Award! Praise for the third edition: “This is an outstanding edition of this book. It has great relevance for learning about, developing, and using middle range theories. It is very user friendly, yet scholarly." Score: 90, 4 Stars -Doody's Medical Reviews The fourth edition of this invaluable publication on middle range theory in nursing reflects the most current theoretical advances in the field. With two additional chapters, new content incorporates exemplars that bridge middle range theory to advanced nursing practice and research. Additional content for DNP and PhD programs includes two new theories: Bureaucratic Caring and Self-Care of Chronic Illness.

Divided into four sections, content sets the stage for understanding middle range theory by elaborating on disciplinary perspectives, an organizing framework, and evaluation of the theory. Middle Range Theory for Nursing, Fourth Edition presents a broad spectrum of 13 middle range theories. Each theory is broken down into its purpose, development, and conceptual underpinnings, and includes a model demonstrating the relationships among the concepts, and the use of the theory in research and practice. In addition, concept building for research through the lens of middle range theory is presented as a rigorous 10-phase process that moves from a practice story to a conceptual foundation. Exemplars are presented clarifying both the concept building process and the use of conceptual structures in research design. This new edition remains an essential text for advanced practice, theory, and research courses. New to the Fourth Edition: Reflects new theoretical advances Two completely new chapters New content for DNP and PhD programs Two new theories: Bureaucratic Caring and Self-Care of Chronic Illness Two articles from Advances in Nursing Science documenting a historical meta-perspective on middle range theory development Key Features: Provides a strong contextual foundation for understanding middle range theory Introduces the Ladder of Abstraction to clarify the range of nursing’s theoretical foundation Presents 13 middle range theories with philosophical, conceptual, and empirical dimensions of each theory Includes Appendix summarizing middle range theories from 1988 to 2016

Book Description
"Dear Reader Future Author! Welcome! We are confident that you are opening this book because, like us, you have a hard time containing your excitement for writing. We pity people who fail to experience the exhilaration that comes with seeing a document emerge from a blank white screen. Some of us have our raison d'?tat in writing. Sometimes your friends, colleagues, and loved ones may say things like, ?better you than me!? or, ?I am so glad that I will never ever have to write a paper again? when you tell them about the work you do. Just know that they are jealous that it is not them? OK that was fun, so much for the ?rah rah? of the introduction - and now back to reality. Before you go any further, we want you to know that we understand if the very thought of writing conjures negative feelings of anxiety, anger, guilt or self-loathing. Maybe you made the decision a long time ago that you do not write well, and that you would rather have a root canal while staring at the sun than write a paper. We, the authors, your friendly colleagues in the scholarly world met at a scientific conference ? in the hotel bar. We were lamenting the topic of scholarly writing, and the different methods we used to be productive authors. We discussed the similar struggles we experienced with writing. In addition to finding a lot of common ground, we shared approaches we used to be more effective and productive authors. We agreed that we learned many of these tips, tricks, and resources through trial and error or informal sharing with our colleagues. After another round of ?inspiration? we decided the world needed a book designed for nurses who are pursuing a graduate degree or took a job in academia. Thus, our project to write this book came to life"--
