Apologies for cross posting
***************************

The Policy Press are publishing two new books this month that I think will
be of interest to members of this list.

'Citizens at the centre: Deliberative participation in healthcare
decisions' by Celia Davies, Margaret Wetherell and Elizabeth Barnett
examines the involvement of citizens in policy decision-making processes -
deliberative democracy. This has been a central goal of the Labour
government since it came to power in 1997. But what happens when members of

the public are drawn into unfamiliar debate, with unfamiliar others, in the

unfamiliar world of policy making at national level? This book sets out to
understand the contribution that citizens can realistically be expected to
make.

In 'Placing health: Neighbourhood renewal, health improvement and
complexity', Tim Blackman looks at how where people live matters to their
health. Health improvement strategies often target where people live, but
do they work? The book tackles this question by exploring new theoretical,
empirical and practice perspectives on this issue, anchored by major
studies of England's Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy and the Programme for
Action on health inequalities.

We have another book, 'Health inequalities and welfare resources' by Johan
Fritzell and Olle Lundberg, coming out in November that may also be of
interest. You can access further information on this and the other titles
on our website - www.policypress.org.uk.
