Epidemics from the Perspective of Professional Nursing
In his classic article, Charles Rosenberg brilliantly sets up epidemics as social phenomena of three interrelated stages-progressive revelation, develop ment of an explanatory framework to manage randomness, and negotiation of public response. This framework, although written almost thirty years ago, still resonates. Even as we have experienced different kinds of infectious epidemics over the last century (Ebola, AIDS), his stages still help us u…

Charissa J. Threat. Nursing Civil Rights
In Nursing Civil Rights: Gender and Race in the Army Nurse Corps, Charissa J. Threat accomplishes her purpose of broadening our thinking about discrimination history beyond race and gender to economic rights and labor as part of an equal rights agenda. Her narrative vehicle is the story of the integration (of both race and gender) of the Army Nurse Corps between World War II and the Vietnam War. The Army Nurse Corps is an effective subject choice…

Reimagining Nursing's Place in the History of Clinical Practice
This work posits how medical history might be conceptualized if nurses and nursing history was used as the analytical lens. Nursing is seen not as a separate part or subsection of medical history, but rather one that is deeply embedded in the relationships and social order of clinical practice. Nursing is an analytical category in and of itself. By approaching nursing as such a category, we enlarge "new notions of historical significance" to enco…

They Called Them Angels
Approximately seventy-seven thousand nurses enlisted in the armed services during World War II (p. xvii). This book is an interesting collection of the stories of some of these military nurses who are, according to Kathi Jackson, unheralded and unchronicled. In the last few years, several authors have discovered this once-ignored group of women. Elizabeth Norman's treatment of American nurses trapped on Bataan by the Japanese is one such example …
Gendered Notions of Expertise and Bravery
This paper explores the highly gendered nature of expertise and bravery from the perspective of "hospital stories," using the narrative generated by a nurse working in a burn unit on September 11, 2001. Through the use of narrative, the instability of gender as a way to categorize thought and action is thrown open to a more nuanced and broader analysis of the less visible, but just as compelling aspects of disasters and crises.
