Beskrivning

This is the first major study of a significant post within the British government. Drawing on a wide range of archival sources and interviews with senior health professionals and politicians, this book positions the Chief Medical Officer as one of the most influential individuals within the Whitehall system, with personal responsibility for the health of the population. Through a number of case studies, including the 1950s smoking and lung caner issue, and the AIDS and BSE crises of the 1980s and 1990s, "The Nation's Doctor" examines how the CMO operates, drawing on expertise to inform the direction of government health policy.

"'Health in Britain has probably been subjected to more conscious 'policy formation' than almost any other area of government activity. It demands attention both for its own sake as well as for the broader picture of the process of government. This analysis enables a re-positioning of this significant group of professionals at the centre of the Whitehall system and a move towards a useful analysis of the development of medical authority in Britain.' Sally Sheard and Liam Donaldson"
