<br/><br/> As nurse education moves towards an all-graduate discipline, it is vital for nurses to have the ability to critique research in order to benefit practice. This book is intended for those seeking to gain or develop that skill. It also contains a chapter on how to critique research as part of the work of preparing a dissertation.  This edition retains the features which made the original a 'best seller' with additional material in the hope that this expands the book's applicability. In addition to reviewing and subsequently updating the material of the original text, two further examples of approaches to critique along with examples have been added. The additional chapter on how to critique research as part of the work of preparing a dissertation arose in response to the requests of students and adds further applicability to critiquing per se. The chapter on European psychiatric nursing research is a specific attempt to acknowledge and respond to trends in global health and international nursing, and not least, the increasing recognition that to limit one's scope to a particular country (or continent) is to set artificial and highly limiting boundaries on knowledge utilisation and knowledge transfer. Last but not least, Professor Kevin Gournay has written the Foreword to the Second Edition.
