AIKENS’ HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT
The keynote of this work is _highest efficiency_. It is a book on
_modern_ hospital construction and management. Every phase of hospital
management is taken up and most profusely illustrated. Some of the
more important chapters are: The superintendent, the medical service
of a hospital, the furnishing of a 100-bed hospital, hospital incomes
and management, bookkeeping, the hospital store, the kitchen, the
laundry, surgical supplies, drug room, the training-school, out-patient
department, and laboratory.

AIKENS’ TRAINING-SCHOOL METHODS
Miss Aikens solves for you those many problems that constantly arise
in the management of a training-school. She tells _how_ to teach,
_what_ should be taught the nurse, and _how much_. The chapter on
hospital ethics and discipline includes such subjects as head nurse’s
relation to rules, first principles in teaching ethics, honesty,
obedience, personality, social relations, discreteness of speech,
carriage, quietness, expression of appreciation, criticism, maintaining
discipline, personal responsibility, etc.

AIKENS’ ETHICS FOR NURSES
This book emphasizes the importance of ethical training for nurses. It
is a most excellent text-book, particularly well adapted for classroom
work. The plan of the book calls for a combination of the recitation
and discussion method of class teaching. The book is inspirational in
that it will arouse desires to work up to higher standards of life and
conduct. The illustrations and practical problems used in the book are
drawn from life. There is no other work just like this one.

non-metallic elements, the metallic elements, carbon and its compounds,
the acids, physiologic chemistry (proteins, milk, urine), giving the

WILSON’S OBSTETRIC NURSING
Dr. Wilson’s little book presents in detail everything connected
with pregnancy and labor and their management. The entire subject is
covered—from the beginning of pregnancy, its course, signs, on to
the approach of labor, its actual accomplishment, the puerperium,
complications, care of the infant, and after-care of the mother—_always
emphasizing the nurse’s duties_.
