[The production of knowledge on nursing: challenges in the search of recognition in the interdisciplinary field].

It is about a thematic reflection regarding the current panorama of Nursing and the interdisciplinary issue in Health. It aims at reflecting and discussing about the Nursing practice and its production of scientific knowledge, as well as its influence in the relation with other jobs in the health area. For that, the interdisciplinary relations that exist between Nursing and several other health professions are approached. Finally, some suggestions are made for both the Nursing Graduation and Post-graduation courses as well as for the professionals of this field, with the objective of improving the teaching and the professional practices.
