Reviews
"An excellent synopsis of the recent history of medicine in Wales. Charles Webster gives a detailed and fascinating account of the tortuous way in which a measure of devolution was achieved in the 1960's. This book is both varied and stimulating and it deserves to have a wide readership. It also gives us an indication of the many gaps in our knowledge which need to be filled." Huw Edwards, Planet, Issue 181A"UWP should be congratulated for leading the field in this area; one both popular with general readers and so crucial to understanding twentieth-century Wales, and the UK. Moreover, this collection contains valuable and insightful pieces and clearly maps out the topography of the current historiographical position indicating where new efforts should be concentrated.A"Andrew J. Hull, Welsh History Review 24 Part 1

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
