Today is publication day for The Nursing Clio Reader. As I write in the preface of the book, I started Nursing Clio back when I was a second-semester grad student as part of a final project in a public humanities seminar taught by historian Matthew Countryman at UMich. 🧵

The Nursing Clio Reader is out now! This book is so good, so accessible, so smart. It's perfect for teaching, bedtime reading, and gifting. (My cat also likes the color coordination.)

By far the coolest volume I’ve ever been in. The essays meet the current assault on public health and expertise. Each imagines ways of honouring bodily autonomy without sacrificing our collective well being. @nursingclio.bsky.social @rutgersupress.bsky.social

Happy Friday!

Have you preordered The @nursingclio.bsky.social Reader yet? There are only 4 days left until publication day, and an order just isn’t as cool as a preorder. (JK, we’ll take preorders, orders, or any other way you want to get a copy!)
