For the edification of undergraduate or beginning graduate students
of health and social services, reprinted articles, book chapters, and
essays juxtapose the experience and voices of British health and social
care users with findings from research and current academic debates. The
first edition appeared in 1998, just before the New Labour government
had begun to shift support from institutions to individuals, thus
injecting capitalist competition into the equation.
