Overview
Overview
Health care systems across the world are in a state of permanent revolution as they struggle to cope with multiple pressures arising from changing demography, the rise of noncommunicable disease, the growing demand for health services, and limited resources in a time of austerity. Focusing on reforms of the British National Health Service, this book offers a fresh look at how it is coping with such pressures. By exploring the complexity and interconnectedness of health policy and health services concerns, David J. Hunter offers a critical perspective on such issues as integrated care and the return of public health to local government. Crucially, he critiques the market-style changes introduced by the Coalition Government between 2010 and 2015. Lively, accessible, and with implications for global health care policy debates, this new edition of The Health Debate will be vital reading for students of health care and health policy, policy makers, and public health and health care professionals.
