Reviews
‘This book is an inspiring reflection on public and patient involvement. The authors have captured the critical considerations for planning involvement in research, relating how meaningful, relevant and beneficial involvement is only possible when we have considered the reasons for doing it and tackled the structures that support unhelpful power imbalances.’
—Becki Meakin, General Manager of Shaping Our Lives: A National Network of Service Users and Disabled People, UK
