"""This is an extraordinary and important book, both vitally topical and essentially timeless."" - Stuart Maconie ""At the beginning, I’m happy to be drawn gently in, by about half way through, I’m starting to realise that, not only is this entertaining, but it’s important, and by the end I know it’s vital."" - Tim Hayward"
