"""'The NHS at 75' is an authoritative, wide-ranging, but carefully focused review of the current state of the NHS and its future prospects. The authors are all leading social scientists analysing health policy in the UK today."" Nicholas Mays, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. ""No other city hosting the Olympic Games would showcase their health system as the centrepiece of the opening ceremony. Yet London, in the Summer of 2012, did. But behind those evocative celebrations lies an NHS which is historically contested and political, and currently under tremendous pressure. To understand all this and more, you must read this book."" Jeffrey Braithwaite, Macquarie University"
