Summary Annotation Written by teachers and about teachers, this book is for mid-career nursing teachers as well as students of teaching in nursing. Contained in this volume are narratives based on interviews with twenty-one well-regarded teachers of nursing who are at various levels in their careers. Selected by the editors based on personal experiences with them as teachers or mentors, their current stature in the nursing education community, or because they are recipients of national teaching awards, the contributors to this volume provide multiple role models for career development and offer a plethora of wisdom, including:? How teaching expertise has evolved and been sustained over time? Deciding on a career in teaching nursing? Preparing and mentoring in teaching? Maintaining excellence? Comfortable times as a teacher? Embarrassing teaching moments? Most and least rewarding times? Significant challenges? Advice for new teachers
