'This is an excellent textbook for which there is currently a niche
in the market. The chapters on rationing, professionalism, politics
of clinical knowledge and the politics of democracy and
participation are particularly strong and will be invaluable to
students of health policy, health studies and health service
research' - Professor Michael Calnan, University of Bristol Written
by leading academics in their field, this book provides a clear and
considered overview of the politics of health care in Britain.
Bringing together a wide range of material on both past events and
recent developments, the chapters cover issues such as the politics
of health professionalism, clinical knowledge and organisation and
management. Each chapter offers a a unique combination of theory,
historical detail and analysis of contemporary events. It features
case studies to illustrate how policy has evolved and developed in
recent years, and the implications these changes have for practice.
Written in an accessible style the chapters also include
comprehensive introductions, summaries and further reading
sections. The final chapter is based on three detailed case studies
that illuminate the tensions and debates discussed throughout the
book. The Politics of Healthcare in Britain is a timely and
authoritative textbook that covers a key topic of the curriculum
whilst also contributing to topical debates. The book will be
essential reading for students of social policy, health policy,
public policy and nursing. It will also be of interest to policy
makers and practitioners in the field of health care.
