Reviews:
'Britain Votes 2001 presents a
solid lineup of leading scholars and a thorough review of the
core issues of the election. . . While, as one would expect,
there is a great deal of overlap among the volumes on the 2001
election, Britain Votes 2001 has the advantage of
offering a fairly comprehensive selection of subjects. . .
Britain Votes 2001 is a 'must have' for those wanting a
complete library on Labour's second landslide.' -Terrence
Casey, Democratization |
