Abstract

Means was lead applicant for this ESRC study which covered the development of welfare services for older people in England and Wales from the introduction of social services departments in 1971 through to the implementation of the community care changes in 1993. Professor John Baldock chose it as his 2002 book of the year for SPA News because of how its detailed analysis challenged the assumptions of community care commentators from both the left and the right.
