About this book

With the opening of physical barriers and borders, European nurses have new opportunities to share knowledge and develop fresh insights by working and studying throughout Europe. This book aims to assist this process by discussion of key ethical issues faced by nurses in a number of European countries. In doing so, it is hoped that the diverse cultural barriers, as well as the physical ones, can be lifted through increasing awareness and understanding.
