What is Florence Nightingale: Letters and Reflections (Visionary Women) about?

Florence Nightingale, the 'Lady with the Lamp', has often been used to encourage girls to lead lives of selfless service. She was not, however, a sweet or amenable woman, and did not share the ideals of many of those who have recommended her--for example, she thought the family, so much idealized, was a dangerous trap, and noted that Christ took a similar view. She was a kind of genius, enormously intelligent, meticulously educated by her father, and with a practical flair that was her great gift to the world and which continues to influence hospital design to this day.
