Nurses in the political arena

"This book was written to encourage nurses to become involved in the political process - by running for office, seeking appointments, or becoming active in local government. The authors interviewed 46 nurses who hold or have run for public office - from members of Congress to local government. These nurses share their experiences on everything from getting informed on the issues, being involved in a political party, presenting the right image, to fund-raising."--BOOK JACKET.
