Aiming to provide a comprehensive picture of the UK in the 1990s, this book consists of a miscellany of facts and figures on its geography, society, economy, politics, industry, commerce, sport, culture, communications media, and legal and educational systems. Among the facts which may surprise the reader are that the Isle of Wight and Shetland are not part of Great Britain; an entire English city has been declared a World Heritage Site; it is an offence to kill or injure an adder; Hester Grenville was the mother, wife, sister and aunt of British Prime Ministers; and the UK's smallest university has only 725 students.
