摘要:''The test of this kind of book is whether it does its job as an authoritative reference tool. I tried it out by looking up a few random areas - direct payments for carers, information sharing, statutory duty to provide accommodation, the legal status of care plans. Moreover topics could be easily pinpointed equally well from the index or the contents page. The book is in five parts; part one provides an overview and covers underlying mechanisms, legal principles, good administration and remedies; part two considers community care legislation and guidance; part three covers housing adaptations.
