The text is further enhanced through the use of case studies that relate theory to professional practice, and discussion questions to aid understanding. Links to websites direct the reader to further information on health, social wellbeing and government policies. This book is essential reading for all students of healthcare including nursing, medicine, midwifery and health studies and for those studying healthcare as part of sociology, social care and social policy degrees.
"In an age when health policy follows an individualist model of "personal responsibility" this book by Alan Clarke demonstrates with a vast array of evidence, just how much there is such a thing as society. An excellent overall book."
Dr. Stephen Cowden, Senior Lecturer in Social Work, Coventry University
