A senior academic administrator and an accomplished scholar, Dr. Tuohy throughout her career has made a signal contribution to our understanding of the politics and policy making of health-care reform in Western industrialized democracies. Concentrating particularly on the health-care systems in Canada, the United States and Britain, she offers a powerful account of how and why, despite similar pressures, each country has followed a distinctive path. Her work offers analysis of practical importance for health-policy specialists everywhere, and important theoretical insights for scholars engaged in the comparative study of welfare states under stress.
