This is the first full-length biography of Richard Titmuss, a pioneer of social policy research and an influential figure in Britain’s post-war welfare debates. Drawing on his own papers, publications, and interviews with those who knew him, the book discusses Titmuss’s ideas, particularly those around the principles of altruism and social solidarity, as well as his role in policy and academic networks at home and overseas.
John Stewart is Emeritus Professor of the History of Healthcare at Glasgow Caledonian University. He has written extensively on the history of social welfare, focusing on Britain, Scotland, and New Zealand.
