Reviews

David Marquand is a unique, perhaps irreplaceable, figure in British life ... [He] has written yet another stimulating book. He could strike a massive popular chord as Will Hutton did in the State We're In, and re-ignite British political thought. (Kenneth O. Morgan, The Guardian) Gripping from start to finish ... a brilliant book. Marquand is as fresh and powerful as ever. (Financial Times) What makes Marquand's book so helpful is the historical sweep of how Britain developed the public domain in the first place. (Madeleine Bunting, The Guardian) Highly readable. (Camden New Journal) Decline of the Public echoes concerns being heard across the political divide ... Marquand's analysis of the problem is compelling - and certainly worth worrying about. (Health Service Journal) ...powerful and eloquent polemic. (TLS) This short, powerful book should interest students and eperts alike. (Political Studies Review)
