Abstract

In this essay, several nurse scholars who are particularly concerned about the contemporary state of nursing science present their specific concerns (dark clouds) about the advancement of our discipline and the ways in which the concerns have been addressed (bright lights). This essay is the first of two essays that were catalyzed by Barrett’s paper, “Again, What Is Nursing Science?” The second essay will be published in the next issue Nursing Science Quarterly.
