This is an interested text which I have recommended for another course which looks at health inequalities and class.
Well written, easy to navigate chapters. Explains complex issues well.
would help give students a deeper perspectives into the healthcare system in the UK
One of two essential texts for the course. Well-defined chapters are useful for students (ie studying one chapter per week for each specific topic) and the suggestions for the further reading at the end of each chapter are particularly useful as they are not simply a list of books, but include an idea of content and emphasis for each recommendation. The final chapter of case studies (e.g. MMR vaccination, devolution, evidence-based medicine, healthcare inequalities) offers good material for seminar discussions.
This book is a useful resource that will provide health and social care students on a social policy module with essential background reading to some of the current issues in practice.
Essential background reading for evidence-based practice in todays NHS
As background to current issues facing the NHS
The book provides useful further information on British health policy.
