Description

Explore the historical evolution of nursing in Japan through this detailed study from Routledge. Following the end of Japan's period of isolation after 1868, the nation looked toward Western models to reshape various aspects of life, including healthcare. This book examines the specific rise of 'Florence Nightingale-ism' within the Japanese context. Readers will learn how Japanese nursing adopted Western influences and implemented these models in a conscious way. The text provides a unique look at how these practices were applied, sometimes more fully on the surface than in Britain itself. It also covers the significant challenges faced by Japanese nurses as they worked to balance these new Western standards with traditional Japanese attitudes. This academic work is an essential resource for those studying the modern history of Asia and the global development of healthcare professions.
