Excerpt from A Text Book of Physics and Chemistry for Nurses

The authors of this text-book have endeavored to furnish the student of nursing in concise form a simple and clear presentation of those portions of the sciences - physics and chemistry - Which are of special interest and importance to the student and the graduate nurse.

The work is necessarily brief. The curricula of most schools of nursing call for but one year of instruction in physics and chemistry. The authors therefore decided to discuss only the amount of material which, in their opinion, could be intelligently digested by the average studious nurse in the time allotted to the subjects.
