Probably the best description of this authorita- 

 tive work is contained in the opinion expressed by 

 Miss Nutting in the Introduction : 



"Miss Gardner has performed an important 

 service in placing at our disposal the first really 

 comprehensive presentation of so timely a subject 

 as Public Health Nursing, a subject whose develop- 

 ment and status are becoming increasingly im- 

 portant as a matter of vital public interest. From 

 the depths not only of a rich experience preceded 

 by a careful training, but of an unusual understand- 

 ing of, and respect for, human relationships, she 

 brings forth the mature wisdom which charac- 

 terizes the book. Miss Gardner knows her sub- 

 ject from within every stage of it. She reveals 

 herself as a woman of quite exceptional adminis- 

 trative insight. Seen through her eyes, com- 

 plicated situations become clarified, difficulties 

 dissolved, and the work moves easily to accom- 

 plishment along well directed lines."
