Críticas

'Most impressive is his recognition not only of the science of nursing a psychiatric
emergency, but the art of dealing with the human and emotional consequences of such a confrontation ... at last, here is a sound, clinically-based book that explores theealmost taboo issues' Nursing Times, October 1995.
'At last, here is a sound, clinically-based book that explores these almost taboo issues. There is no doubt about its great value to all those health workers involved in the practice of psychiatric case.' Nursing Times, October 1995
'Martin Ward's research based text is of practical help in dealing with those events which can be termed psychiatric emergencies. It promotes the use of relevant therapeutic communication in a constructive manner for dealing with situations which are not likely to happen all the time. It will significantly contribute to the development of self-awareness in any reflective practitioner who reads it.' - Interaction, May 1996
'Martin Ward, a highly respected mental health academic, has produced a
beautifully written text which is crammed with sound, practical advice. ...
this text is destined to be a classic of its genre. While this book is
primarily aimed at ward personnel,
it is quite simply a brilliant book and should grace every A&E nurse's
bookshelf and every A&E department's library. If Nursing the Psychiatric
Emergency is the only book you buy this year, it will be money well spent.'
Emergency Nurse, January 1996
