The Age of the Inquiry by Jill Manthorpe

The Age of the Inquiry explores the plethora of inquiry reports published in the fields of health and welfare in the 1990s covering the full range of user groups, individuals and institutions. Focusing on service and policy development, it provides an invaluable text for students, teachers and professionals with an interest in health and social care, social policy and sociology.

'The Age of the Inquiry provides an excellent source of material for many readersIt is a useful text for social work students at undergraduate and post graduate level and for researchers. The Sheer volume of detail could be daunting for the reader looking for broad themes. For other readers this may be a strength, especially for researchers and those for whom conducting reviews of practice is a frequent duty.' - Applied Social Sciences, Faculty of Education, University of Auckland.
