Paperback. Condition: New. Eva Charlotte Ellis Lückes (1854-1919) was a pioneer of nursing training and friend of Florence Nightingale. In 1880, aged only twenty-six, she became matron of the London Hospital, the largest hospital in England, a post she held until her death. During her time there she improved working conditions for the nurses and trained her own staff, recognising the importance of a knowledge of anatomy and physiology, but never losing sight of the primary duty of a nurse to care for a patient's needs. First published in book form in 1884, these lectures were part of the training for probationers at the London Hospital. Emphasising the importance of attention to detail, the lectures address the practicalities of nursing, covering such topics as the management of infection, caring for sick children, bandaging techniques, and drug administration. Also reissued in this series is Lückes's popular 1886 textbook Hospital Sisters and their Duties.

This is the first edition of her Lectures on General Nursing, which ran through 9 editions, the last being published in 1914. In her Preface, Lückes writes: "My sole object has been to collect as much practical information as possible, and place it before those studying the matter as simply as I could. It will be remembered that these lectures only form the first course of the complete set given every year to probationers training at the London hospital. I have confined myself for the most part to minute details, that are usually considered almost too trival to mention, and I believe it is this fact which chiefly explains the kind appreciation they have met with from the probationers, and the frequent requests for their publication" (Preface, pp. vi-vii) In 1880, at age 26, Lückes was appointed Matron of the London Hospital where she remained until her death in 1919. She was also the author of Hospital Sisters and Their Duties (1886). There is a detailed article on Lückes on Wikipedia.
