New Edition and New Name: Lashley’s Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice

Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice

The 2nd edition of Lashley's Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice, formerly called Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice, has had a slight name change and STAT!Ref has it available now.

Lashley's Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice has been completely updated to help nurses learn to “think genetically.” Today’s nurses must be able to “think genetically“ to help individuals and families who are affected by genetic disease or contemplating genetic testing.

Lashley's Essentials of Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice is a classic resource for nursing students and practitioners at all levels who need to acquire the knowledge and skills for using genomics in their practice. This completely updated second edition encompasses the many recent advances in genetic research and knowledge, providing essential new information on the science, technology, and clinical application of genomics. It focuses on the provision of individualized patient care based on personal genetics and dispositions.

The second edition is designed for use by advanced practice nursing programs, as well as undergraduate programs. It pinpoints new developments in prenatal, maternity, and pediatric issues and supplies new information on genomics-based personal drug therapy, environmental susceptibilities, genetic therapies, epigenetics, and ethics.
