Florence Nightingale in 5 minutes!

She's the most famous nurse ever, right? But did you know she was also a tech geek and a statistician? That she was very well educated at a time when most women didn't go to school? That she travelled widely? That her life's work saved loads of lives, and not just in the Crimean War? What a woman! Find out about her!

In five minutes you've done wonderful justice to a fabulous topic and person. Superb!
The thing that struck me in On Nursing was how her ideas were so simple but utterly revolutionary, like that of keeping windows open for ventilation, and how the presence of what would now be termed 'comfort animals' could inspire recovery.
