Biography
Martin Lipscomb Ph.D. RN is a senior lecturer at the University of the West of England and Secretary to the International Philosophy of Nursing Society.
'Life in the modern world is ruled and shaped by evidence. This book examines exactly what we mean by evidence. It is an engaging read for researchers and practitioners willing to grapple with what often are the grey areas surrounding the implementation of the most up-to-date clinical evidence and to consider innovative ways of achieving best practice. It makes a valuable contribution to the emerging literature taking a critical approach to EBP.'- Dr Catherine O'Neill, Nursing Times
