  When Covid-19 swept the world, governments scrambled to protect their citizens and chart a course back to normality. As Health Secretary, Matt Hancock was at the forefront of Britain's battle against the virus, trying to steer the country through the crisis in a world where information was scarce, judgements huge and the roadmap non-existent.
  Drawing on a wealth of never-before-seen material, including official records, his notes at the time and communications with all the key players in Britain's Covid-19 story, this candid account reveals the inner workings of government during a time of national crisis, reflecting on both the successes and the failures.
  Recounting the most important decisions in the race to develop a vaccine in record time and to build a nationwide testing capacity from the ground up, Pandemic Diaries provides the definitive account of Britain's battle to turn the tide against Covid-19. Crucially, it also offers an honest assessment of the lessons we need to learn to be prepared for next time – because there will be a next time.

  Urban Governance and Renewal -...

  In the complex architecture of city-making, governance represents the invisible framework that shapes urban development, mediates competing interests, and determines whose voices influence the evolution of metropolitan spaces. Beyond physical infrastructure and economic dynamics, the political dimensions of urban environments—the policies, power structures, and institutional arrangements that guide development decisions—profoundly shape the trajectory of cities and the lived experiences of their inhabitants. This comprehensive exploration delves into the intricate domains of Urban Policy and Governance, The Politics of Urban Development, and Urban Renewal, examining how formal and informal power systems determine which neighborhoods flourish, which communities face displacement, and how the benefits and burdens of urban change are distributed. 
  The narrative of urban governance is fundamentally a story of contested visions, where multiple stakeholders—from elected officials and corporate interests to community organizations and marginalized populations—engage in complex negotiations over the future of shared urban spaces. By examining the historical evolution, contemporary challenges, and emerging paradigms of urban governance, this book illuminates how policy frameworks, political processes, and renewal strategies reflect deeper power dynamics and ideological perspectives about what cities should be and whom they should serve. Readers will journey through diverse urban contexts—from the boardrooms where development decisions are made to the grassroots movements that challenge established power structures—discovering how governance approaches have evolved from top-down interventions to more collaborative, participatory models that recognize the plurality of urban stakeholders.
