The government has created millions of new beneficiaries, spent tens of billions of pounds it doesn’t have and created a mountain of public debt. And yet, when the crisis has passed, we will be left with all the old problems of welfare and well-being which we have systematically failed to address over the past 50 years.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nIn this book, Christopher Pierson argues that we need to think quite differently about how we can ensure our collective well-being in the future.
