Media Reviews
An engaging book, which offers students the kind of `Cook's tour' that only the best teachers have the range and knowledge to deliver. Paul Spicker, Robert Gordon University Aberdeen
At last, a social policy textbook which builds from the basics to provide a comprehensive overview of the key pillars of the welfare state. Essential reading for all students (and a helpful reminder for those who teach them!). Jon Glasby, Director, Health Services Management Centre, University of Birmingham
This is an excellent second edition of a fantastic text, which is accessible, engaging and pitched perfectly for those new to the subject. Sharon Wright, University of Glasgow
