Recensioner i media

"... achieves what it sets out to do: it is accessible to a wide range of readers. For consumers of services it provides knowledge and powerful insights; for students, practitioners, managers and teachers in health and social care it is an invaluable textbook in a complicated area of policy and practice; for researchers and policy makers it brings together and synthesizes definitive polices and research. It's also a good read." Journal of Interprofessional Care
