Britain's health service is dying. Gavin Francis shows us why we
should fight for it. Since its birth in 1948, the powers that be
have chipped away at the NHS. Now, Britain's best-loved institution
is under greater threat than ever, besieged by a deadly combination
of underfunding, understaffing and the predatory private sector. In
the wake of the pandemic, we have come to accept a 'new normal' of
permanent crisis and years-long waiting lists. But, as Gavin
Francis reveals in this short, vital book- it doesn't have to be
this way, and until recently, it wasn't. Drawing on the history of
the NHS as well as his own experience as a GP, he introduces us to
the inner workings of an institution that has never been perfect
but which transformed the lives and health of millions, for free -
and which has never been more important. For those who believe in
the future of the NHS and its founding principles, this is
essential reading from the bestselling author of Recovery and
Intensive Care.
