Healthcare in transition<http://policypress.co.uk/healthcare-in-transition>

Understanding key ideas and tensions in contemporary health policy

By Alan Cribb

“This book lays bare the contradictions and paradoxes in health policy thinking that are often conveniently ignored. Essential reading for those interested in health policy and politics and (hopefully) for politicians.” Stephen Peckham, Centre for Health Services Studies, University of Kent



This book explores the fundamental currents and tensions that lie behind recent trends in health policy such as shared decision-making, co-production, and personalisation.
