Interpreting British Governance

This book combines the skills of a political theorist and intellectual historian with those of a student of British government and administration. We share responsibility for all that follows, believing that it would be invidious to try to specify who had what ideas. Even when one of us has taken the lead in writing a section of the book, the other has read and commented on it at various stages in ways that have altered its tone and content. We hope the combination provides a distinctive take on how to understand British government.
