Margaret M. Andrews and Joyceen S. Boyle, coauthors of Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care, provide a comprehensive framework for providing culturally competent nursing care for individuals, families, groups, communities, and institutions. The book is divided into four parts: Part 1 introduces the theoretical foundations of TCN and cultural competence. Part 2 uses a developmental approach in providing culturally competent care across the life span from infancy to old age. Part 3 examines the application of transcultural concepts in selected settings. Part 4 critically analyzes contemporary TCN challenges related to nutrition, pain, religion, ethics, the multicultural health care workforce, and international nursing. Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care has received the American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Award and Sigma Theta Tau International’s Best Pick Award.
