Reading Material

These are some of the books I read before deciding to pursue nursing as a career. I also talked to people who have been nurses for a long time, some who are just a few years in as second career nurses themselves, and people in nursing school. There are a lot of great resources online as well, but some of these books (especially the autobiographical ones) gave me more information than I could find through google.
