what makes a nurse professional?

what is care? Holism, nursing theories, the difference of a nurse to a lay carer

I used to be a nurse tutor & remember lots of discussions around this question, so here goes!
The definition of a profession is that the individuals undertake a research based training, they are proved (by assessment) to be competent in their work, they have a central professional governing body which produces their code of ethics & practice, that they undertake ongoing professional development to remain up to date in their work. By definition, a professional attains to this so what you will find is that a lay carer doesn’t have the level of training, a code of conduct & ethics, etc. Of course, despite this, there are many nurses who although have undertaken all that makes them a professional, are not “professional” in their work – you know what I mean! If you investigate this statement further, you will probably find that they are lacking in one area of what defines a profession. Hope this helps.

Biological Holism

Holism: A Shopper’s Guide $27.25 The main question addressed in this book is whether individuation of the contents of thoughts and linguistic expressions is inherently holistic. The authors consider arguments that are alleged to show that the meaning of a scientific hypothesis depends on the entire theory that entails it, or that the content of a concept depends on the entire belief system of which it is part. If these arguments …

Systems Thinking: Creative Holism for Managers $46.95 Too often, today’s managers are sold simple solutions to complex problems. But as many soon discover, simplicity is rarely effective in the face of complexity, change and diversity. Despite apparent promise, quick-fix panaceas fail because they are not holistic or creative enough. They focus on parts of the organization rather than the whole, take little account of interaction, and pander to the n…

Spacetime Holism by Winkler, FranzGnter [Paperback] $152.44 The basic concepts of spacetime holism are introduced in close relation to David Bohms holistic philosophy. It is shown how spacetime holism is inspired by and helps to understand the concepts associated with the theory of self organization. A crucial chapter is devoted to the interpretation of relativity theory, where one of the seemingly strangest suggestions of spacetime holism, namely the full integration of space and time, receives a basis in theoretical physics. The paradigm of information processing is criticized by showing that information and processing are inseparable and by arguing for a duality relation between computation and meaning. After formulating spacetime holisms approach to the socalled representation problem of cognitive science, the conceptual tools are used to address two philosophical aspects of cognition which are usually pushed aside: the hard problem of consciousness and the question how time passes.

Meaning Atomism vs. Meaning Holism $149.76 The main objective of the inquiry undertaken in this study is to explore the nature of meaning and the way it functions in language. The two semantic perspectives that dominate the philosophers discussion on meaning are: meaning atomism and meaning holism. As the name suggests, meaning atomism views meaning works atomistically. It suggests that meaning of a proposition is determined in isolation from other propositions. This view is supported by Frege, Early Wittgenstein,Logical positivists, Russell and many other. Further, we found there are problems in atomistic theory of meaning. On the basis of the failure of atomistic theory of meaning we explore the alternative theory, i.e. meaning holism. To establish this we have considered the arguments of Quine, Davidson, and Later Wittgenstein. The holistic perspective on meaning says that meaning of a proposition is not determined in isolation. It determines in relation to other propositions of a given language. This suggests that to understand the meaning of a proposition we need to understand a set of proposition of that language. Thus, meaning can be decided in relation to a bunch of proposition in a particular paradigm of language.

Reconnection: Dualism to Holism in Literary Study $34.42 An openly polemical work, Reconnection seeks a way of returning the humanities to their place at the center of human life. For the past three hundred years, to study the humanities has implied an isolation from politics, science, and society. Literary studies, in particular, have often fallen prey to this isolation by viewing novels, plays, and poems as impassive verbal icons, as texts to be explicated without reference to political context or social significance. Seeking a way of ending this selfimposed exile of the humanities from the turmoil of social issues and concerns, Betty Jean Craige looks to the contextual, nondisciplinary thought that began to take hold in academia during the 1960sa development that echoed the rising political awareness brought to the universities by the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and womens liberation. Recently, this emergent openness in the university has come under attack by conservative critics who have sought to roll back the movement for nontraditional inquiry in academia and to reassert the dominance of hierarchical, canonical thought. By tracing the ideological history of literary studies, Craige shows that this reactionary goal of reimposing canonical thought is, in time, doomed to failurethe age of the discipline is over. In its place, Craige calls for the creation of a holistic system of learning that will emphasize interdisciplinary and nondisciplinary research, reconnecting literary studies with history and philosophy, with science and politics, restoring literature itself to a central place in our intellectual discourse and social debate.

Reflections on a Theory of Organisms: Holism in Biology $30.03 In a thoughtprovoking and controversial work first published in 1987, eminent geophysicist Walter M. Elsasser argues that the behavior of living organisms cannot be reduced to physicochemical causality. Suggesting that molecular biology today is at the same point as Newtonian physics on the eve of the quantum revolution, Elsasser lays the foundation for a theoretical biology that points the way toward a natural philosophy of organic life.

The Content of Social Explanation $51.16 This is a study of the central questions of explanation in the social sciences, and a defence of holism against individualism. In the first half of the book Susan James sets out very clearly the philosophical background to this controversy. She locates its source not at the analytical level at which most of the debate is usually conducted but at a more fundamental, moral level, in different conceptions of the human individual. In the second half of the book she examines critically three case studies of holistic approaches Althusser, Poulantzas and the Annales historians and progressively refines our sense of the strengths and deficiencies of their programmes. She ends by arguing for a form of concessive holism, which offers some accommodation to liberal conceptions of individual autonomy but continues to emphasise the explanatory importance of social regularities and environments.

The Form and Function of Analyticity $96.59 In The Form and Function of Analyticity I investigate the different use of the concept of analyticity arising from different interpretations of the implications of general relativity. Don Howards has argued that Einsteins break with members of the Vienna Circle is due to the latters retention of a formal distinction between analytic and synthetic propositions and Einsteins insistence on a holist conception of scientific language. The assumed premise of that argument is that the analyticsynthetic distinction must necessarily entail atomism. Thomas Oberdan argues against the soundness of Howards premise by offering Carnaps project as a counterexample. I explore how Oberdans claim could be understood; i.e. how Carnaps project could be consistent with some sort of holism. I also suggest that by reinterpreting the notion of analyticity; by prioritizing the function of analytic judgments over their logical form, the analyticsynthetic distinction can be compatible with holism.
