Recensioner i media

“Texts on the complexity of innovating in social care are rare. This highly informative book offers policy makers and practitioners a clear account of what it takes to successfully use innovation to improve practice. Seen through the lens of three innovative models of practice, it provides insight, clarity and guidance as to how to steer a course through the challenges organisations may encounter on such a journey.” Louise Brown, University of Bath
