This essay, written to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Nursing Science Quarterly, focuses on the distinctions between the discipline of nursology and the trade of medicine. The distinctions are drawn from content found in nursing conceptual models and from literature about the elusive content of the so-called “medical model.”
