Reviews
'Michael Temple raises questions that deserve to ring alarm bells throughout British public administration and politics, as the Blair government appears to continue rather than reverse the centralising tendencies of the Conservative era' - Simon Jenkins, The Times
How Britain Works is a stimulating, thought-provoking but even-handed account that presents Blair's pursuit of the Third Way and joined-up government as a natural development of Thatcher's revolution. Those that believed Labour's victory in 1997 would usher in a new golden age for a powerful democratic system of local government should read this book...it may help explain their disappointment' - Professor Michael Thrasher, University of Plymouth
'...an excellent, brief volume on both the attitudinal and governmental changes brought by the Thatcher years and their potential impact on Labour in power.' - A.Katz, Choice
