"The strength of this book lies in the quality of analysis and
its ability to capture and discuss critically the impact of the
government's modernization agenda. It should have a place in all
departmental libraries."
-- Terry Bamford, Community Care
"This book is unique in providing a clear framework for understanding the relationship between social policy and social services, and the complex structures and roles of the different organizations involved in the operation of social services ... It is one of the few texts that provide a clear picture of how to make sense of the bureaucratic organizational structures that surround social services ... in all the book is an important text for the social worker or student in understanding the relationship between social services, local authority and the central state." (Journal of Social Work)
