This overview of the NHS Research and Development Programme is written by people who are at the leading edge of its implementation. It integrates the issues of research management and funding with the importance of focusing research on the needs of the customer (the NHS) and the challenges of implementing the findings of research into clinical practice. The experience of the authors extends from developing local research networks to managing a national research programme, reflecting the scope of the NHS strategy and the potential of this book.

"'One problem facing general practices in the vast array of papers in which NHS changes are proposed. This book is particularly good in three ways: it pulls the proposed changes together, it sets them in context, and the text is presented in a easy to read style. The authors are experienced in the NHS and have analysed numerous documents well. This text is a practical way for many colleagues in primary care to see the main proposals for change within the covers of single book'. Sir Denis Pereira Gray, in the Foreword"
