A hidden room, a secret resistance network – and a call to witness for Christ in the darkest of places Corrie ten Boom and her family were watchmakers living in Haarlem, Holland in the early 20th Century. They loved God and loved to help others where they could. But their happy lifestyle was shattered when the Nazis occupied their country. Corrie became involved in the Dutch resistance network to help Jews, and others targeted by the Nazi regime, find safe places to hide. But when they were found out one day, little did Corrie realise that the work God called them to was just beginning. God used Corrie to show his love, even amidst the suffering of a Nazi concentration camp. The faith and courage displayed by Corrie ten Boom and her family shine through in this short, narrative biography.

Unitary Caring Science: The Philosophy and Praxis of Nursing takes a profound look at conscious, intentional, reverential caring-healing as sacred practice/praxis and as a necessary turn for survival. Jean Watson posits Unitary Caring Science for the evolved Caritas-conscious practitioner and scholar. A detailed historical discussion of the evolution from Caring Science toward Unitary Caring Science reflects the maturing of the discipline, locating the nursing phenomena of wholeness within the unitary field paradigm. An exploration of praxis as informed moral practice results in an expanded development of the ten Caritas processes, resulting in a comprehensive value-guide to critical Caritas literacy and ontological Caritas praxis. Watson writes for the Caritas Conscious Nurse™ or the Caritas Conscious Scholar/Practitioner/Educator on the journey toward the deeper caring-healing dimensions of life. Unitary Caring Science offers a personal-professional path of authenticity, bringing universals of Love, Energy, Spirit, Infinity of Purpose, and Meaning back into nurses lives and their life’s work.
