'Each chaper is easy to read, providing an overview of the main models or theories linked to the subject matter. The chapters are succinct and are illustrated with short helpful scenarios, case studies and "resource Files."' - Carol Riddington, SRA:News (Social Research Association)
'The book flows well, topics are linked appropriately and the authors encourage development of professional practice by providing facts, then recommending further reading, asking review questions and offering links to further resources.' - Robert Adams, Nursing Standard
'This very comprehensive book is set to become a core text for all Foundation Degree students within the health and social care field. It is written in very accessible style which is important for this group of learners, many of whom will be mature adults returning to study. ... I would strongly recommend the book both as a core text for health and social care students and a very valuable resource for tutors and practitioners in the field.'
- Anne-Marie Reid, Programme Leader Foundation Degree in Health and Social Care, University of Bolton, UK
'It is a very good introductory text to subjects such as study skills, sociological contexts of health care, basic physical care, different client groups and quality assurance to name but a few.' Louise Wilby, The Practising Midwife.
