There are several editions of Lewis's Medical-Surgical Nursing, so the APA citation will vary depending on the edition you used. To give you the most accurate citation, I need the edition and publication year. However, I can provide you with a template. Replace the bracketed information with the specifics from your book.
Template:
Lewis, S. L., et al. ([Year of Publication]). Medical-surgical nursing ([Edition]). [Publisher].
Example (using a hypothetical edition):
Lewis, S. L., Dirksen, S. R., Heitkemper, M. M., Bucher, L., & Camera, I. M. (2023). Medical-surgical nursing (11th ed.). Elsevier.
Important Considerations:
- "et al.": If there are more than six authors, use "et al." after the first author's name.
- Edition: Include the edition number (e.g., 11th ed., 2nd ed.).
- Publisher: Accurately list the publisher (e.g., Elsevier, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins).
- DOI: If your book has a DOI (Digital Object Identifier), include it at the end of the citation. DOIs are usually found on the book's title page or copyright page. The DOI would look like this: doi:XXXXXXXXXXXX
Once you provide the specific edition and publication year, I can give you a precise APA citation.
