Recenzii

In this innovative and stimulating book, Tim Blackman draws on extensive practical research experience to illuminate both the complexity of neighbourhood effects on health, and the practical relevance of complexity theory to public policy. Drawing on examples from unexpected quarters, this book will provoke fresh thinking about the objective of creating healthy neighbourhoods for all. John Mohan, Professor of Social Policy, School of Social Sciences, University of Southampton, UK

This is a thought provoking book to learn from and argue with. Journal of Social Policy, Vol 37: 2, 2008.

...written for an academic audience by highly respected academics, who also have extensive experience of applying theory to practice. ...it is the authors' experience in the field and the inclusion of examples that makes it a valuable resource to individuals working in social research. LariaNews

...you will enjoy this authoritative and incredibly well referenced book....wonderfully informative in its exploration of the complex manner in which place influences health and its description of recent interventions to reduce inequalities at the local level in England. Public Health
