Summary: ElectronicSummary: The NHS is beset by paradoxes: apparently massive investment in the NHS yet Trusts that have huge deficits; real movement on staff salaries, yet low morale; falling waiting lists and record activity levels, yet rising public expectations. One could go on. What is clear is that a consensus is needed as to what the NHS should be: this book is designed to stimulate that debate in the widest possible public arena. Dr Tempest has brought together the views of a huge range of leading names in politics, medicine and management, and ensured that their contributions are accessible to all. Whether the reader is an interested layman, or a professional involved in or working with the NHS, this book will be a must-read.
