Review:
'up-to-date, thorough and deeply informed' News Statesman
'a characteristically solid and well-balanced assessment...a valuable delineation of both the nature and the substance of Thatcherism.' Philip Norton Parliamentary Affairs
'Kavanagh surveys Thatcherism in practice with a commendable detachment and finds the record mixed...As a survey of recent trends in British politics and a study of what governments can achieve, it will be an essential item in reading lists for British politics courses.' Times Higher Education Supplement
'Dennis Kavanagh's book is the most comprehensive treatment of Thatcherism so far, a perceptive and stimulating history and commentary. The evidence and arguments are clearly laid out, and cooly appraised, in a way which should encourage readers to develop their own assessments. The book is a considerable achievement in the field of contemporary history.' Parliamentary Affair
