Originally published in 1973, this book investigates the spatial distribution of General Practitioners (GPs) via the Designated Area Allowance (DAA) which was introduced in England amid controversy in 1966. It analyses the effectiveness of the DAA and presents the results of a survey conducted among general practitioners in England, covering the patterns of geographical mobility among GPs, the relationship between choice of practice area and other connections with the locality. It also discusses the professional and personal differences between GPs in areas which are well served with GPs and those which are not. The book provides an important historical discussion of the inequalities in the distribution of general practitioners in England in the late twentieth century.

Based on authors’ experiences in working in the NHS and in teaching medical students, nurses, social science undergraduates and trainees in community medicine, Health and Health Services (originally published in 1984) is an introductory text on health care policies.Since its introduction in 1948, the National Health Service had frequently been the focus of intense scrutiny, debate, conflict and passion—and perhaps never more so than in the 1980s. Health and Health Services explores the issues underlying these reactions.Drawing upon the literature in social policy, economics, epidemiology, and community medicine, the book deals with major areas of debate in the provision of health care in post-war Britain. It takes as a central theme the relationship between health services and health, exploring the links between resource inputs, service outputs, and welfare outcomes. Within this framework, it is concerned with such issues as the allocation of resources to and within the National Health Service, the relationship between the public and private provision of health care, the efficiency and effectiveness of health services, the measurement of need, and the policy-making structures and processes of the NHS.

Through an exclusive focus on public policy advocacy as a practical endeavor, Philip Dalton and John R. Butler depart from approaches to debate education that focus on the rules of simulated, academic debate formats. Beginning with the assumption that readers have already developed a basic capacity to argue, they offer practical guidance for determining the fundamental issues that make up a controversy and what expectations public audiences will have for advocacy based on the issues and the burdens of advocates challenging or defending the status quo. Through examples that span a wide range of advocacy situations and subjects of contemporary importance, the authors build a framework for public policy advocacy that is organic to the communication discipline, recover and refresh foundational lessons about the uses of evidence, and provide critical questions that can be used to develop and communicate policy proposals that are sensible and appealing. Written in an accessible, respectful, and motivational style, the book is suitable for students of debate, professionals who function as advocates, and people who find themselves wishing to voice their opinion on an issue of concern.
