Jharna Gourlay''s highly positive assessment of her work pitted the progressive Nightingale against the timid administrators and health officers.15 Here, instead, I prefer to examine Nightingale''s achievements in the light of the objectives she set for herself. Her work, of course, was always done with collaborators, so what contributions can be said to have been distinctly Nightingale''s will be a matter of judgment. In some respects she was clearly the leader and initiator of action, bringing ...
