Join us in celebrating National Nurses Week. Created by the American Nurses Association (ANA), National Nurses Week takes place every May 6 through May 12 to commemorate Florence Nightingale’s birthday. This year’s theme is “Nurses: Inspire, Innovate, Influence.”

We're so excited to announce that the gold standard for midwifery practice is back with a new edition. Completely updated and revised, Varney’s Midwifery, Sixth Edition reflects current evidence-based guidelines.

Before joining the Rights and Media team at Jones & Bartlett Learning, I worked as an admissions counselor for three years. Though I was definitely ready to say goodbye to making 100 phone calls per week, assuring parents that their child would definitely get an internship, and having conversations about financial aid which were far above my pay grade, I have missed the facetime with one’s customer that comes with a sales position. Thus, when presented with the opportunity to represent Jones & Bartlett Learning along with Matt Kane, Director of Product Management and Lindsay White, Marketing Manager at the NSTA 2018 National Conference on Science Education in Atlanta, I was thrilled to dust off the old college fair skills and learn about marketing the text books I work on behind the scenes.

The number of licensed nurse practitioners (NP) has reached an all-time high. Recent data from the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) found that there are currently 248,000 NPs in practice. What’s more, they’ve seen 106% growth since 2007.

You know that Jones & Bartlett Learning is a world-leading provider of instructional, assessment, and learning-performance management solutions for the secondary, post-secondary, and professional markets. You’ve seen how our comprehensive print and digital solutions combine authoritative content with innovative technology to help educators teach more effectively and students learn more efficiently.  

Now in an updated third edition, Violent Offenders: Theory, Research, Policy, and Practice continues to lead with cutting-edge material on all types of violent offenders, including gangs, serial killers, sex offenders, career criminals, and conventional street criminals. The Third Edition also features six new chapters on current highly-debated topics including violent juvenile offenders, sexual offenders as well as sex offending policy and practice, and more thought-provoking discussions. This engaging text challenges students to think critically of the subject not only while inside the classroom, but also in their everyday lives as consumers of daily news.
