This edited book provides a hard-hitting and deliberately provocative overview of the relationship between evidence, policy and practice, how policy is implemented and how research can and should influence the policy process. It critiques the notion of 'evidence-based practice', suggesting instead a more inclusive idea of 'knowledge-base practice', based in part on the lived experience of service users. It will be of interest to everyone in health and social care policy, practice and research.

"What we intend and what we deliver are often two different things and in many cases the learning from practice is not used to inform policy objectives. We need a virtuous circle and not a vicious one where policy, practice and evidence of what works for citizens in terms of delivering positive outcomes mutually reinforce each other. This new book seeks to create this circle." Richard Jones, President of the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services
