An interesting and inclusive history of the NHS, exploring its unexpected survival - and the people who support it.
Andrew Seaton examines the full history of the NHS, highlighting the changes and adaptations of the service, while gathering the experiences of patients and staff from Britain and abroad. He explains why it survived against the neoliberalism of the late twentieth century and how it became a key point of national identity.
Seaton emphasizes the resilience of the NHS - it is constantly "in crisis" but simultaneously perpetually resilient - as well as the political values it embodies and the work of those who keep it alive.
