Ben Pimlott, Sunday Times `A great success ...always lucid and readable.' John Grigg, The Times `An achievement of astonishing scope and thoroughness which would be beyond the reach of most other scholars writing in English today.'

Harold Perkin, Twentieth-Century British History `anyone who studies politics will want to possess his book.'

He is particularly good at identifying the critical moments at which governments changed course, or lost a golden opportunity for doing so ...' Paul Addison, London Review of Books
