Government Beyond the Centre : Sub-National Politics in Britain

This book analyses the politics of the vast range of organisations that make up the public sector away from Whitehall and Westminster.

It deals with the history, policy-making, and inter-governmental relations of local government, the NHS, quangos and the outposts of central government.

An ideal introductory text for students of politics and public administration and for anyone concerned with this part of the administrative machine of Britain.
