Anmeldelser
«'... a fascinating new book ... short, accessible and profound.'»
The Economist
«'... splendid book.'»
The Spectator
«'His arguments are lively and original.'»
John Rentoul, The Independent
«'This book is significant on two counts: for what it says and for who is saying it. ...an important book...well written and free of jargon.'»
Prospect
«'This important book develops a number of arguments ... The book is bold and ambitious in the way that it moves from concepts to policies ... The book is also powerful and compelling in its advocacy of quasi-markets ... works best as an analysis of how the diverse motivations of welfare providers can be channelled to ensure that benefits and services are both delivered more efficiently and become more responsive to the needs and aspirations of those who receive them.'»
