Primary Care in the UK: Policy, Organisation and Management (Paperback)

'The UK's primary care literature has been crying out for good policy and research textbooks, and this is a refreshing response to that need. It documents with great clarity, yet in meticulous detail, the evolution of primary care over the past two centuries...a valuable and well-research contribution to the literature of UK primary care. It is particularly strong in its assessment of policy context and development.' - Health Service Journal 'This book equips the reader with an extensive examination of primary care issues and will be of particular benefit to students of contemporary health and social policy.' - Maureen Beech,Journal of Community Nursing 'This is possibly one of the most comprehensive texts on primary care to date...one destined to become a valuable resource, particularly for students examining management-related issues in the NHS.' - Linda Crofts, Nusing Standard 'The book's strengths lie in bringing together in one place, and analysing in a policy context over time, so many different aspects of primary care. The authors are to be congratulated on providing a new and fascinating insight into such a complex policy arena.' - Public Health
