Who are the authors of The Art and Science Of Nursing Care (4th ed., 2001)?

• A. Carol Taylor and Carol Lillis
• B. Patricia Potter and Anne Perry
• C. Afaf Meleis and Afaf
• D. Dorothea Orem and Virginia Henderson

Answer: (A)

The question is testing your recall of who wrote a specific nursing fundamentals text. The 4th edition published in 2001, The Art and Science of Nursing Care, is credited to Carol Taylor and Carol Lillis. This pairing is well known in foundational nursing education as the authors who combined practical care with scientific knowledge in that edition, making them the correct authors for this book. The other names listed are prominent in nursing education and theory but did not author this particular volume. Patricia Potter and Anne Griffin Perry are associated with a different fundamentals text, while Afaf Meleis is known for nursing theory and theoretical works, and Dorothea Orem and Virginia Henderson are key figures in nursing theory rather than co-authors of this edition.
