Recenzii

'This is the best non-partisan short book on 'Thatcherism' and the 1979-1990 era to have appeared to date. It is wide ranging, all encompassing, massively referenced with a great Bibliography and very fair. It digs out a lot of facts, gives useful insights and accords credit where credit is due'. John Blundell, Director General, The Institute of Economic Affairs, UK
'My only disappointment as I came to the end of this excellent book was when I realised that it was the last in Professor Fry's enjoyable and informative series of books about British political history.' - Christie Davies, The Salisbury Review
'...a thought-provoking book...' Parliamentary History
'Professor Fry has produced a detailed account of the Thatcher years for which students wishing to get a sense of what was going on in the 1970s and 1980s will be grateful. The chapters are arranged thematically but logically and, rather contradicting the book's title, economic and administrative affairs are given substantial, and entirely appropriate, emphasis. This is more than a study of British politics.' - Contemporary British History
