Dear colleagues and friends.

In recent History of Nursing conferences held in Kolding (Denmark), Valletta (Malta), London (England) and others we have had the opportunity to personally meet and share human and professional experiences. With many of you we talk on making scientific exchanges to enrich our training in historical research we are developing in our respective countries: historical sources we use, historical periods, research lines and many other aspects of interest.

Today new technologies are offering us exciting possibilities to maximize the advancement of research and there are websites that allow host our published works, so they can be viewed by researchers and teachers who are interested in these issues. We are up to our publications in „ACADEMIA.EDU” site. In one month will be uploaded and available almost all of those who are interested. We think that if you too have some or all of your online publications could do a link exchange.

Here, we leave the link to a study we did on a manual written by a Spanish secular nurse in 1651 for the training of nurses:

This eBook is a part of the work published in 1996 in Spanish language and translated into English in 1997 entitled Treatise for Nurses, by Simón López, Spanish nurse, made out in 1651, with Text Transcription, Historical Study, Tables of Contents, Glossary and Bibliography by Antonio Claret García Martínez, Manuel Jesús García Martínez and Juan I. Valle Racero. This book had a new edition in 2001.

This includes the Introductory Study (translated into English), Manuscript Illustrations, the Index of Authors quoted by Simón López and incorporated Bibliography. Treatise for Nurses is a fundamental book to understand and knowledge sixteenth and seventeenth centuries Nursing practiced in Spain and its spread in the New World and parts of Asia, including the Philippines, from Chile to Southern United States, as a result of the presence of Spanish nurses in all those places.

Treatise for Nurses (Directorio de Enfermeros) (1651) and Training for Nurses (Instrucción de Enfermeros) (1617) are treatises made out by nurses and for nurses, and they are a universal and extraordinary heritage of Nursing profession.
