Críticas:

"Chamberlain provides an effective critique of revalidation. With the limited research and evidence available, he shows that not much has changed in the work of the General Medical Council and questions whether revalidation changes behavior. This should be required reading for those concerned with professional regulation in Britain and United States." Ruth Horowitz, Professor of Sociology, New York University "This book by a renowned expert on medical regulation provides a very well-informed analysis of the latest developments and issues in an area of great public importance in the UK." Professor Mike Saks, University Campus Suffolk

Reseña del editor:

Medical sociology has traditionally focused on the governance of 'troublesome' social groups, including the unwell, the `deviant', and the criminally insane. But recently, it has explored how the state ensures the public is protected from medical malpractice, negligence, and criminality. Against the background of some high-profile scandals, this authoritative book examines the modernisation of the regulation of doctors by the introduction of a quality assurance process. Highlighting areas of good practice, this book will be required reading for scholars of medical sociology, medical education and health policy.
