Synopsis

Excerpt from The British Political System

The author's aim is not to give an exhaustive account of the British system, but rather to describe, explain and interpret its principal features. He concentrates on what he rightly regards as essential, and ignores the rest. He is thus able to provide, within the compass of a book of moderate size, a singularly comprehensive and satisfying view of a complicated political system. The central theme of the book is the source, organisa tion, exercise and control of political power. Part I deals with the source of power; Part II with the organisation of power; while the third and final part discusses the limitations of power.
