Abstract

There is very little published research relating to minority ethnic groups in Scotland so that discussion of welfare policies tends to concentrate on data relating to England and Wales. Bearing in mind that Scotland has a different institutional and legal structure and a different migration history, a book that attempts to bring together available Scottish research and to stimulate further work is to be welcomed. The title of this book suggests a more comprehensive collection than is actually the case: following an overview of the demography of minority ethnic groups in Scotland, there are three papers concerned with social rented housing; four with care of the elderly; and three with women's health. Nevertheless, issues raised by the authors have implications beyond the immediate field of research.
