Coming of age in nursing. Rethinking the philosophies behind holism and nursing process.
No one is going to like everything that Kobert and Folan say in this article, but it offers a rich bouquet of ideas for discussion and debate.

That holism is the answer for nursing? That holism equates with feminism while nursing process represents a masculine reductionism?
