There is now a forty-year period to look back at to consider the thinking behind the strategy, the impacts on commissioners and providers of care, on the care workforce and on those who use care and support services. In this book, Bob Hudson meticulously charts these shifts. He challenges the dominant market paradigm, explores alternative models for a post-Covid-19 future and locates the debate within the wider literature on political thinking and policy change.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"With COVID-19 exposing the tragic neglect of adult social care and provoking fundamental debates about what the future should hold, Hudson's analysis of morals, markets and power is a must read." Jon Glasby, University of Birmingham</p><p>"A superb exposition of how we ended up with a predominantly private market in social care and what we can do about it. An authoritative contribution to the debate about social care reform." Richard Humphries, The Health Foundation</p><br>
