Description
Health policy thinking must change. This book explores the fundamental currents and tensions that lie behind recent trends such as shared decision-making, co-production, and personalisation. Its arguments will help fuel a shift away from a `delivery' model towards a more deliberative model of healthcare.
Reviews / Votes
"This book lays bare the contradictions and paradoxes in health policy thinking that are often conveniently ignored. Essential reading for those interested in health policy and politics and (hopefully) for politicians." Stephen Peckham, Centre for Health Services Studies, University of Kent "Anyone who believes in the importance of a health system being designed to respect persons on an individual and societal level should read this book." Mary Catherine Beach, John Hopkins School of Medicine "Cribb is wise to healthcare's civic context, astute about normative questions and subtly person-centred - his elegant argument provides lucid guidance to the changing healthcare landscape." Joshua Hordern, Oxford Healthcare Values Partnership, University of OxfordMore details
