How were the medical services organised in Britain in the years
before the National Health Service? This short study looks at
developments in hospital and primary medical care before World War
Two focusing on service delivery and 'the sufferer's agenda' rather
than on the concerns of high politics. It considers the influences
shaping provision, accessibility and impact in the contexts of
contingent risks and social need, health care and social policy.
The author examines the recent research in this area, concluding
that, despite improvements, substantial reform was an agreed point
on the agenda of all interested in health care by the later 1930s,
though a positive consensus had not emerged. This book will be
invaluable to students and teachers approaching the subject for the
first time, and includes a detailed bibliography to assist in
further research.
