Sommario/riassunto

In an increasingly urban society, we are losing touch with our roots. There is a hunger to engage with the spiritual implications of this, and to enrich our appreciation of the spiritual potential of urban spaces.  Discovering the Spirit in the City  brings together established authors with new voices to explore ways in which the concrete, consumerist and cosmopolitan context we inhabit can be re-enchanted with a sense of the sacred. The international flavour of modern urban living is reflected



in inter-faith and non-British perspectives.   The chapters are interspersed with specially commissi

Sommario/riassunto

Neuman's <b>Systems Model</b> is a comprehensive conceptual framework, used extensively in nursing education; it reflects nursing's interest in holism and the influence of the environment on health. This volume provides a clear and concise overview of the model and includes a brief biography of the theorist and a succinct discussion of the theory itself.
