This splendid resource provides a concise introduction to British politics. Dennis Kavanagh's revised and fully updated text offers an up-to-date profile of politics and the system of government in Britain. New topics include an assessment of the first three years of Labour government and the issues surrounding devolution and constitutional change. Contemporary developments are placed in their historical context, allowing an understanding of the ways in which the politics of the 1980's and 1990's have shaped and affect current issues.
This book is a well written and helpful companion to both a first year undergraduate course and A-level politics. Although wider reading is necessary for an undergraduate course, and to obtain a good grade at Alevel, this book provides a basic and up to date framework around which to work, pointing the reader towards further reading and putting that further reading into context. And for those who do last minute revision, the summaries at the end of each chapter are very useful.
