Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback.

The success of this shift is so often assumed that people have rarely stopped to ask the most fundamental question: has it actually worked?In this wide-ranging book, Max Rashbrooke goes beyond anecdote and ideology, delving deep into the latest research about the sweeping changes made to the public services that shape our lives together.
