Product Information

Like its predecessors, Who Dares Wins is a rich mixture of political narrative and social reportage. It is scholarly, accessible, well written, witty and incisive.

But the programs given relatively free rein under Thatcher were part of a broader international shift to deregulation and monetarism that preceded the 1979 election in the UK.

I do not encourage violence. But if you need a tactical blunt-force instrument, this whopper of a book will come in handy. Hard to believe that it covers only four years or that so much, written in so many words, has no dull moments. Very informative read, Very well written and easy to absorb as each chapter goes over what you've just took in making it easier to understand and remember. Chosen as a Book of the Year in The Times, the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail, the London Evening Standard, the Mail on Sunday, Prospect and BBC History Magazine
