Abstract
This chapter concludes the book by offering an account of reflections and personal views born out of observation and experience over 25 years’ work in specialist health promotion. Rigorous scientific observation and analysis of alliance-working can be found elsewhere (Powell, 1993) and in other parts of this book; this final chapter is offered to provoke thought on how the rhetoric surrounding health promotion alliances relates to real life.
