THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF
SOCIAL SECURITY IN NEW ZEALAND

A survey of social security in New Zealand from 1898 to
1949, and the most comprehensive work on the subject yet
published in this country.

Of 180 pages, the book is divided into three parts—cash
benefits, health benefits, and finance. Each subject is dealt
with in detail and there is a comprehensive index.

The book will undoubtedly be of considerable interest to
those interested in social security and social services, and will
be especially valuable to University students.
