Reviews for Introduction to Nursing Informatics

A book that teaches nurses about technology and the way nursing is changing at a rapid rate is definitely needed and the book does meet those objectives. It offers plenty of vocabulary and explanations to help nurses and nursing students understand many new and complex technological concepts. (Karen OGrady, Doody's Book Reviews, June 4, 2021)
