Recenzii
While reports of the welfare state's death have been exaggerated, what it provides has changed and will have to do so further if risking demands and costs are to be met, according to The State of Welfare, written by specialists at the London School of Economics./Nicholas Timmins/Financial Times 23 April 1998.
All the detailed trends are reviewed in State of Welfare (OUP, 1998), a report by the economic and Social Research Council Centre for the Analysis of Social Exclusion at the London School of Economics./The Times Higher Education Supplement 7 August 1998 Opinion p11.
a treasure chest. Inside are all the revelant facts and figures, as well as the detailed arguments...All the chaptersprovide a wealth of tables./Saul Becker/"Community Care"3 December 1998
Written in a clear and accessible style, every self-respecting book shelf should have a copy...The scholarly exposition of argument and policy options will be essential reading for students, who need a good single source of reference, and for academics, policy-makers and practitioners - who need to know the real facts on which to base their policiesand practice/Saul Becker/"Community Care" 3-9 Dec-1998
A key ingredient of the success of this book lies in the fact that the editors and the individual authors while being versed in the perspectives and analytical approaches of the economist are, at the same time, writing from out of a social policy stable. This has meant that not only do they write their economics in a way that is accessible to non-economists, but that they locate their economics in a wider context of political social and demographic processes These strengths, together with a relative dearth of texts covering similiar ground, will doubletts ensure that the second edition will go on to become 'essential reading' on many university modules. John Doling/University of Birmingham
'This should be a core text for all students of social policy and the development of the British welfare state...'
'...this is an excellently updated book, packed with information to keep policy wonks and the statistically obsessed happy, but written in a style to enable everyone to get to grips with important questions about the state's caring role.'
