Culture, Economy and Politics Reviews

This is a very valuable book, in part as it fills a huge gap in the research. this book covers a huge territory as it is, and given its achievement in presenting a series of complex situations with admirable clarity, it should become a core text on any reading list relating to UK culture and politics since Thatcher.
