		But for Bevan this was as high, in terms of applying socialism to the common man, as anyone could aim, and in the event the one great effort in socialism which Labour so firmly established that consequent political changes have failed to move it.
		Although Bevan understood the need for health centres he never clearly understood that they could function as socialised centres only if doctors were paid on the same basis as the rest of the team.
		Aneurin Bevan understood the need for that and it was its absence in some of the negotiations he had to conduct with doctors that made him impatient with the medical profession.

	Aneurin Bevan Summary
		Aneurin Bevan, usually known as Nye Bevan (November 15, 1897 – July 6, 1960) was a Welsh Labour politician regarded as a hero of the left, primarily for his role in the formation of the National Health Service.
		Some 2,688 voluntary and municipal hospitals in England and Wales were nationalised and came under Bevan's supervisory control as Health Minister and the British people were provided with diagnosis and treatment of illness, at home or in hospital, as well as dental and ophthalmic services, free of charge to the patient, funded by the Exchequer.
		However, Bevan faced acute difficulties in light of extraordinary post-war circumstances, and what is more, successfully increased in the quality of houses that were constructed as council homes, instructing local authorities to build houses equipped with modern amenities, and of significantly larger scale than had previously been offered.

		Aneurin Bevan's 'In Place of Fear' is indeed, as it's back cover claims, as relevant today as it was when it was written in the early 1950s.
		Bevan's key theme in this book is the necessity of organised political parties to bring about the alleviation of poverty and unemployment worldwide.
		Just as the British National Health Service which Bevan founded still survives and cares for it's patients, so also in the aftermath of the Cold War this book has much to say that is still relevant today if we wish to create a fairer world and avoid the rise of new Hitlers and Stalins.
