Partnership Working in Public Health by David J Hunter
Partnership working in public health presents the findings from a detailed study of public health partnerships in England which are used to explore the governments changes in public health now being implemented.
"The authors challenge the established view that partnership working is an effective way to tackle complex public health problems..and prompt the reader to consider a great array of factors that will challenge your preconceptions in considering a seemingly straightforward question." Research Policy and Practice
"In this challenging volume David Hunter and Neil Perkins build on a diverse array of ideas and evidence about partnerships, taking the reader beyond simple descriptions to explore the theoretical basis of partnership and examples of what makes for success." Professor Gareth Williams, School of Social Sciences, Cardiff University.
"A timely and important analysis! As health systems are transformed in the UK and elsewhere, deeper understanding of complexity and how government enables or constrains innovation and change is critical." Allan Best, InSource Research Group
"The book achieves its aim of using research to explore public health partnerships and their ability to deliver better health outcomes... there is little available for the intended audience on public health partnerships and the book challenges the widely held views that partnerships deliver demonstrable improvements in public health." Elaine Rodgers, Health Development
