Kagan, Smith, and Chinn's book on emancipatory nursing is one of the remarkable books in nursing literature. It exposed health inequities and role of nursing (and health workers) in reducing the disparity. The invited chapter authors discussed social discourses, compassion, pedagogies, and clinical practice approaches to curbing social injustice in health. This to my mind will pave way for more nurse involvement in health inequities! Great read! Kagan, Smith, and Chinn's book on emancipatory nursing is one of the remarkable books in nursing literature.
