Reviews

'Professor Calnan is very well qualified to write on health policy, power and politics in the UK, in which he has a national and international reputation. This book is solidly grounded on his recent teaching and distinctively and revealingly adopts a sociological perspective in addressing several key facets of the UK policy agenda.' -- Mike Saks, Emeritus Professor, University of Suffolk 'Health Policy, Power and Politics is an excellent book ideal for students undertaking health policy modules. Effectively a course text in its own right, it draws on Michael Calnan's years of teaching, researching and writing on and around this topic.' -- Mike Dent, Emeritus Professor, Staffordshire University
