    Description of Britain Since 1945

    This volume offers a comprehensive overview of Britain's development since
    the end of World War II. Drawing together the themes that have dominated
    discussion amongst scholars and media commentators, the volume should
    provide a useful introduction for students of contemporary British history,
    politics and society. "Britain since 1945" comprises 23 contributions from
    leading authorities and newer scholars, set in context with a foreword by
    Raymond Seitz and an introduction by the volume editor. Chapter topics
    range from "Parliament and the Constitution", "the Welfare State", and
    "Gender", to "Currents of Political Thought", "Foreign Policy and Defence",
    and "Social History/Social Trends". There is also coverage of the regions
    of Britain, with individual essays on Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
    The chapters are written with the beginning student in mind and assume no prior knowledge. Each includes a section of suggested further reading to
    aid in-depth study.
