This important text explores the development and current context of primary care in the UK. Taking a policy perspective it discusses the management and organisation of primary care and analyses contemporary issues and debates such as incorporation and fragmentation, inter-professional working, patient involvement and public health. It is key reading for students on health policy, social policy, nursing, medical and management courses as well as practitioners and managers working in primary care, and other health and social care services.

Industry Reviews

'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
