Policy Press new resources

As usual I have picked out those publications from the Policy Press newsletter that I think will be of interest to at least some readers of this blog.

Better Partnership Working, edited by Jon Glasby and Helen Dickinson and published in association with Community Care, is an exciting series of accessible "how to" books providing an essential introduction to partnership working.

Rural Ageing, edited by Norah Keating, addresses a growing international interest in "age-friendly" communities, examining the conflicting stereotypes of rural communities as either idyllic and supportive or isolated and bereft of services.

Hazel's comment:
I'm not sure how much you may or may not be involved with rural communities or the problem of ageing within those communities but partnership is, I know, a perennial problem for those offering guidance. Marriages may be made in heaven but some social partnerships between organisations seem to have originated in the other place.
