Description
Understanding the complexities of modern Britain requires a clear-eyed look at its institutions and ideas. Stig Abell's guide to Britain provides an in-depth analysis of the country's economy, military, education system, healthcare, media, and more.
From the over-stretched National Health Service to the overcrowded prison system, Abell explains the factors that have led to Britain's current state. This book will not tell you what opinions to hold, but will provide the information to help you form your own.
With its unique blend of analysis and insight, How Britain Really Works offers a nuanced understanding of the nation's workings, and where it is headed. A thought-provoking read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of Britain's institutions and ideas.
