Compassionate Conservatism

What is Compassionate Conservatism?

David Cameron has made compassionate conservatism a priority for the Conservative Party, famously saying that "there is such a thing as society; it's just not the same thing as the state."

But what is compassionate conservatism? What vision of society does it offer to inspire and guide future policy making? And what does it have to say about the challenges that face Britain today?

These are the subjects explored in this provocative and thought-provoking book.
