This web site provides a
regularly updated account of the British National Health Service - the NHS.
It follows the book by Geoffrey Rivett, From Cradle to Grave, which covers the
period 1948-1998. The site deals with the finance and organisation of
the NHS, primary care, the hospital service, medical staffing and nursing in
the NHS.
The site appears in two
versions, one using frames, to make navigation and searching easier.
However the browser you are using does not display them and you may better on
the parallel site that does not use them,

Almost everybody now uses a
modern browser, and you should consider upgrading to Microsoft Internet
Explorer 4 or above (6 is the current version), or a modern Netscape browser.
If you reach this page, please
