Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Management and Leadership for Nurse Administrators
Linda Roussel · 2006
68/100
👎 Skip It
A comprehensive graduate-level nursing administration textbook that covers the full arc from management theory through fiscal and HR practice, specifically tailored to nursing leadership rather than generic management — that specialization is its main virtue. Multiple updated editions show real staying power in the field. As a textbook, though, it's dense by design and best accessed through a course or institutional library rather than purchased for independent reading.
