Recenzii

A treasure trove of insights into what makes social policy work from a constellation of stellar academic stars. From first principles through to final delivery the book looks across the spectrum. Key specialists from the different fields - family, schools, higher education, health, social care, welfare, neighbourhood renewal, pensions, redistribution - examine what has worked and what might work better. A true political anorak's bible. Malcolm Dean, The Guardian

This collection of essays by Howard Glennerster's colleagues, past and present, provides a survey of most of the key issues about contemporary British social policy with a particular stress upon policy evaluation. It shares Howard's concerns to provide a pragmatic and sympathetic critique of modern Labour social policy. Michael Hill, Emeritus Professor of Social Policy, Newcastle University

This important tribute to Howard Glennerster addresses the issue of social policy's effectiveness. By adapting the pragmatic tradition that has historically characterized British social policy scholarship to an analysis of current implementation issues, the book makes a major contribution and deserves to be widely read. James Midgley, Harry and Riva Specht Professor, University of California, Berkeley

It will certainly appear on my reading lists. Micheal Connolly, University of Glamorgan
