In the twentieth century, Britain experienced unparalleled change, fought two world wars, and changed from a society with <em>laissez-faire</em> at its heart to a social democracy, and then to a state broadly committed to free enterprise. <p/>This comprehensive study describes the major political events of the era in a clear and cogent way.

Rubinstein presents the history, key personnel, problems and achievements of Britain's successive administrations, from Lord Salisbury's government in 1900 to Tony Blair's 'Cool Britannia'.
