Review Quotes
Teresa Rees, Cardiff University
“This is an excellent collection of analytical essays. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the outcomes of the first decade of devolution. Has a Welsh Assembly Government committed to social justice in Wales been able to deliver? The fascinating research reported on in this book has many of the answers.”
