Synopsis

Since its first publication in 1976, Modern Britain has been widely used as a comprehensive account of the key features of British cultural and political life today. John Irwin examines a wide range of topics which are essential to understanding British culture and the British way of life, including the system of government, the structure of its educational system, social services, family life, and the mass media.

This third edition has been fully revised to incorporate the many significant developments in British life that have occurred since its first publication, such as material on the decision of the Queen to pay tax and the General Synod's vote to allow the ordination of female clergy in the Church of England. Wide-ranging in its coverage and thoroughly up to date, this book is the ideal guide to how modern British institutions developed and how they work today.
