Making Sense of Evidence-based Practice for Nursing by Debra Evans
This new edition provides a straightforward guide to evidence-based practice, helping you to increase your understanding of the processes involved in accessing, appraising, synthesising, and implementing good quality research.
Providing a basic introduction to both quantitative and qualitative research, Debra Evans explores how to find out “what works best”, “how does that make someone feel”, and what requires more research. You will also learn the basic rules used in study design and statistics presented in research articles and systematic reviews, and develop the knowledge necessary to challenge practice that is not underpinned by research. Each simply written chapter includes relevant theory, diagrams and tables, hypothetical nursing scenarios, exercises, a summary, and further reading. This edition includes two new chapters that look at how to get evidence implemented into practice to meet practice goals, and provide advice and tips to help with research assignments and dissertations to meet learner goals.
Packed with examples from practice across the nursing fields and at different levels, this book is essential for nurses – both student and qualified – who want to increase their confidence when it comes to research appraisal, the research process, and evidence-based practice processes.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
