Richard Titmuss (1907-1973) was Professor of Social Administration at LSE. At a time when the welfare state and a free national health service were in their infancy, he was influential in their development through his body of research and active commitment. He was 'a social administrator, a political economist, a sociologist, a social-ist, a philosopher, a leader and a visionary', with an 'uncompromising sense of purpose'. All his major books, most of them long out of print, appear in this collection as a scarce resource for students and researchers interested in the development of welfare economics and social policy.
