What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

In this classic historical nursing text, Florence Nightingale shares her advice on nursing to those entrusted with the health of others. Publishing in conjunction with the Florence Nightingale Museum, Notes on Nursing celebrates the bicentenary anniversary of Florence Nightingale. Florence Nightingale was the ground-breaking female nurse who was responsible for the bettering of conditions in the hospitals of the Crimea, during the war with Russia. First published in 1859, Notes on Nursing is entirely comprised of nursing advice designed to aid individuals entrusted with the health care of others. The guidance Nightingale wrote of includes such practicalities as ventilation, heating, noise, light, bedding, and the cleanliness of the patient's environment, as well as a nurse's personal cleanliness and methods of observation. This work also addresses the treatment of those being nursed, from the food they eat to the things they should or should not be told. The pioneering work of Florence Nightingale and her effort to structure the care of the unwell has since earned her recognition as one of the world's founders of modern nursing. -- Publisher's description.
