This is a partial reference list for the chapters of the Professional Nursing: Concepts & Challenges textbook. Since this book has chapter authors named at the top of each chapter, you need to cite the chapter author rather than simply citing Black. Black is the editor, not the author.
To create this list, I typed the name of the author (2019) and the title of the chapter. Then, I copied everything from: In B. P. Black to the end of the reference and changed the page numbers. (Note: Your reference list should be in alphabetical order and should have a hanging indent so that the authors name is easy to spot). Note the a and b are used to differentiate citations between different authors by the same author. Delete the a and b if you are only citing and referencing one chapter written by the author.
