Social Policy Review: UK and international perspectives. 15Catherine Bochel, Nicholas Ellison, Martin A. Powell Policy Press, 2003 - 272 pages 'Social Policy Review 15' continues the tradition of providing a different style and approach to policy issues from that found in most academic journals and books. This volume combines issues such as globalization, Europe and pensions with examination of the current and historical contexts of social policy. Chapters have been purposely chosen to review a varied and interesting selection of topical social policy developments and to set these in a broader context of key trends and debates. |
