Review statement

Southern Cross University is committed to publishing high-quality open textbooks which meet the needs of students and educators. This book has been peer-reviewed by two academic subject experts from two institutions. The full-text was openly reviewed by each reviewer.

Reviews were structured around considerations of the intended audience of the book and examined the comprehensiveness, accuracy, and relevance of the content. Reviews were also focused on diversity of perspectives, longevity, clarity, consistency and structure.

The authors would like to thank the reviewers for the time, care, and commitment they contributed to the project. We recognise that peer reviewing is a generous act of service on their part. This book would not be the robust, valuable resource that it is were it not for their feedback and input.

Reviewers included:

• Dr Sam Lapkin, Associate Professor, Faculty of Health, Southern Cross University
• Professor Rhonda Nay, Emeritus Professor, School of Nursing & Midwifery, La Trobe University
